We build more than cars.
We rebuild purpose, pride, and brotherhood for
veterans and first responders through the power of teamwork and craft.
Band of Builders
Forged in Brotherhood. Driven by Purpose.
Band of Builders is a hands-on program under Overwatch 6 where veterans and first responders band together to
rebuild something far more important than just cars — themselves.
In our garage, the mission is clear: take raw metal and turn it into something powerful.
Each build starts with a bare-bones kit car and a crew of men and women who have worn the uniform —
people who’ve faced chaos, loss, and silence — and are ready to find their fire again.
Here, the smell of oil, the sound of tools, and the shared purpose bring back something most thought they’d lost:
comradery — that deep, unspoken bond that only those who’ve served can understand.
The Mission
To reduce the suicide rate among our nation’s protectors by giving them purpose, brotherhood, and a mission that matters.
Band of Builders gives veterans and first responders a place to connect, build, and belong. Each turn of the wrench restores confidence.
Each laugh shared over a busted bolt rebuilds trust. And when the final car rolls out of the shop,
it stands as proof — that we can rebuild lives, one build at a time.
Every completed car is sold or auctioned, with proceeds funding alternative health treatments and recovery programs
for other veterans and first responders walking the same road.
This is how we fight back — not with weapons, but with tools, teamwork, and purpose.
WHAT WE BUILD
The Crew
Veterans and first responders, shoulder to shoulder, working toward a common goal.
The Car
A full ground-up build — restored, refined, and ready to roar.
The Cause
Each car fuels the mission to save lives and restore hope for those who’ve served.
