More Than a Walk — A Mission to Remember
Carry The Load is more than a nonprofit—it’s a nationwide movement. Founded by U.S. Navy SEAL veterans Clint Bruce and Stephen Holley in 2011, the organization was born from a desire to restore the true meaning of Memorial Day. Through events like this, Carry The Load brings Americans together to honor the military, veterans, and first responders who laid down their lives for our freedom and safety. By walking, sharing stories, and gathering as a community, participants help ensure that the legacy of our nation’s heroes lives on—not just on Memorial Day, but all year long.
Standing Shoulder to Shoulder
As a veteran-owned company, Francisco Mortgage Team knows firsthand what it means to serve. Our team isn’t just passionate about helping veterans secure home financing—we’re committed to supporting the veteran community at every level. Marching in the Carry The Load event isn’t just symbolic for us. It’s personal. We’ve walked in those boots. We’ve carried those memories. And we know the price of freedom isn’t just paid on the battlefield—it’s paid by the families, the friends, and the communities that continue to carry the load.
