We are incredibly blessed to have a community partner that cares for Veterans the way JDRM does! We absolutely would not have our amazing facility with out you and your countless business colleagues! Now you have soared forward in a completely different concept, “Sponsoring a Veteran”! The impact your company and employees are making in this Veterans life, his families and our community, far exceeds anything we could have ever hoped for! From our team at LB, to all of you, thank you!

For over 15yrs, JDRM Engineering has hosted a donation drive to support local charities. The last four years, JDRM has been directly involved with supporting Little Blessings Veteran Outreach.
Our company and many of our industry affiliates have been instrumental in revitalizing an abandoned riding arena at 5725 W. Sterns Rd Ottawa Lake Michigan. Donating time, equipment, supplies and endless hours of labor to this facility.
This is now the LB Ranch, a second home to so many area Veterans and their families. The Ranch creates a special space for Veterans to transition back into civilian life, while surrounded and supported by the community. It has been an honor to watch this organization grow and rewarding to know that JDRM has contributed to this life changing charity. This year, JDRM has welcomed the opportunity to directly sponsor a local decorated Army Veteran.
Our Veteran started the EAGALA (Equine Assisted Growth and Learning) program at Little Blessings Veteran Outreach January 2024. He will continue his journey for 50 weeks.
Sponsored by JDRM, funding donated by Partners and Employees ($4,100).
Our sponsored hero is an E6 Staff Sergeant, Army Veteran who served from 2009 – 2016. His Primary Specialty was 13F27 Fire Support Specialist.
He was awarded the following decorations, medals, badges, and citations during his 7 years of service: Afghanistan Campaign Medal w/ Campaign Star, Army Commendation Medal, National Defense Services Medal, and the Global War on Terrorism Service Medal.
He is enrolled in the Little Blessing Veteran’s (LB Ranch’s) 50 Week Equine Assisted Therapy Program. He is recently married with a family, and his youngest daughter just started the 18-week Military Kids Social Emotional Equine Assisted Learning (SEEAL) program.
We invite you to follow JDRM, as we follow our Hero through this ‘Life Changing’ journey at Little Blessings Veteran Outreach.
