What it says it does
PROJECT2FOURTEEN's mission is to create a community for veterans living in the Permian Basin. We achieve our goal by raising funds to purchase the gear necessary for our members to embark on a 3 day 2 night hiking or kayaking trip to public lands surrounding the Permian Basin. At the completion of the trip, each member takes their gear home with them so they may recreate the experience on their own time.
