The Freedom 13’s Mission

To Remember. To Honor. To Support.

The pain of losing a child is unmeasurable.

When it was preventable, it’s worse.

Jaclyn and I are so extremely proud of Jared, and the man, the Marine, he had become. And we miss him. Terribly.

We created the The Freedom 13 Organization to not only remember and honor our son and his 12 fellow American Heroes, but every American Hero that made the ultimate sacrifice.

Our Mission is a simple one – to help our Veterans & Police Officers and their families.

Jared Schmitz Family

After much thought, we decided what better way to keep the memory of Jared, Nicole, David, Darin, Ryan, Hunter, Dylan, Kareem, Rylee, Daegan, Johanny, Maxton,  and Humberto alive than to develop The Freedom 13 Veterans Recreational Camp Project.
