Catch A Lift Fund: Fitness for Veterans

Official Partner

Train with us now. Prepare for Catch A Lift’s 2027 intake.

2026 applications closed. Next intake: January 11, 2027 · 4 a.m. Hawaiʻi / 9 a.m. EST.

Big Tire Bootcamp is entering its third year as a Catch A Lift Fund partner, helping eligible veterans connect with fitness and wellness support. Start training and nutrition support with our team now, and talk with us about choosing BTB as your local fitness facility when applying to CAL.

Approved participants may receive fitness equipment or gym-membership support through CAL, subject to its program requirements. Starting at BTB does not guarantee CAL acceptance or funding.

CAL runs its own program, eligibility and application. It is separate from BTB’s Adaptive Fitness program.

Qualifying veterans and active-duty service members train free at BTB. You do not need a CAL grant for that. See the veteran membership

Who can apply?

U.S. veterans with post-9/11 Iraq or Afghanistan deployments, combat-related injuries, and a VA rating of at least 50%, including at least 30% for one combat-related injury. Applicants must reside in the continental U.S., Hawaiʻi, or Alaska. CAL determines eligibility.
