WHAT IS STEPS to HONOR?
STEPS to HONOR is an awareness program designed to honor those who stand in the gap to provide a safe America for all of us. Since the birth of our great nation, there have always been brave and courageous individuals that have stepped up to defend our liberty and keep us safe from harm. Military Missions, Inc., a 501(c)(3) nonprofit public charity, has designed this program to honor those that serve and sacrifice on our behalf.
If you walk, jog, or run, you are already taking STEPS. Why not honor one of America’s heroes while you exercise? STEPS can be taken anywhere! Walk your neighborhood or take your steps inside on a track or treadmill or even in the shopping mall! What about the elliptical machine? As long as you are taking STEPS, you can record your mileage in this awareness program.
WHO CAN BE HONORED? You can honor firefighters and anyone that has served in our military or law enforcement. Basically, anyone that has stood in the gap to keep Americans safe and free is eligible to be honored. This includes veterans, those currently serving, and those who have made the ultimate sacrifice.
WHO CAN PARTICIPATE? Anyone can participate in STEPS to HONOR! This is an awareness program designed for everyone living anywhere! Whether you are an accomplished runner, a Senior Citizen, a young child or belong to a group anywhere in between, you are welcome to take STEPS to HONOR an American Hero!
WHEN CAN I START? The program runs from Memorial Day until September 11, but many of us walk in honor of our heroes 365 days a year. We have chosen to focus on this particular time period as we introduce the program because these months typically have patriotic holidays and warm weather. Memorial Day reminds us of the ultimate sacrifices that have been made for ALL of us. September 11 is a date that will always have significant meaning to ALL of us as we are reminded of the many who were tragically killed by terrorist attacks, and the many that stepped up to protect us on that day in 2001.
CAN I STILL PARTICIPATE IF THE PROGRAM HAS ALREADY STARTED? Yes! You can start TODAY! This is an awareness program. If you walk only one mile in a hero’s honor, we have accomplished our goal! Keeping track of total mileage is optional and there are no prizes for most miles STEPPED. It’s not about us and how much we STEP. It is about honoring our heroes!
HOW DO I GET STARTED? The only real answer is “just start stepping”, but if you would like to honor your hero in our program here is what you need to do:
1. Now that you have found our STEPS to HONOR blog site, go up to the top of the page and click FOLLOW. As a follower you are able to keep up with our updates.

Once we receive your request to join our blog team, we will add you to our list of blog authors. You will then be able to post information about your heroes and your STEPS to HONOR them. Please keep all posts positive and encouraging. We will delete any posts that are not written with respect and honor of our heroes. Inappropriate posts and pictures will cause you to lose blogging privileges on our website.
DO I HAVE TO JOIN THE BLOG? No. You only need to register. You can honor a hero without recording your experience on our blog, but you might want to consider participating to generate more awareness and honor for your hero. Sharing your experience with others will encourage them to consider taking a few STEPS to HONOR! You will get a chance to share your hero’s story with the rest of us and allow us the opportunity to honor that individual as well. It’s time to encourage patriotism with positive stories of service and sacrifice of those that make the USA a great nation!
HOW DO I KEEP TRACK OF MILEAGE? There is a mileage chart available that will help you to keep an account of your mileage. You are not required to use the chart, but it is available for your convenience if you are interested in keeping track of your mileage. We hope you will keep track of your STEPS to HONOR and let us know about your accomplishments and the heroes you are honoring with your STEPS! To print out the mileage record go to the top of this page and click on the link on the right or go to www.militarymissionsonline.com/
