GOVX Raises Over $62,000 for Folds of Honor, Providing Scholarships for Families of US Military and First Responders

Partnerships with Luminox and Professional Bull Riders (PBR) helped to amplify the impact of this recent GOVX Gives Back campaign.

SAN DIEGO, June 11, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- GOVX, the online shopping platform exclusively for current and former military, first responders, emergency medical professionals, and other government personnel, is honored to announce its recent donation through the GOVX Gives Back program. This latest contribution– $62,922 – was provided to the non-profit organization, Folds of Honor, through a multi-pronged campaign.

Nearly $28,000 was generated through the GOVX Gives Back monthly initiative, where proceeds from every order on GOVX.com support military and first responder non-profits. A generous supplementary donation match of $10,000 by GOVX brand partner, Luminox, the high-performance watch brand, added to the total. Additionally, GOVX leveraged a season-long campaign through PBR in which $50 was donated to Folds of Honor for every Qualified Ride throughout the Pendleton Whisky Velocity Tour. This trigger campaign generated another $25,000 on behalf of Folds of Honor.

Folds of Honor's mission provides scholarships to spouses and children of America's fallen and disabled servicemembers. Since 2007, the foundation has awarded over 62,000 scholarships to military and first responder families.

"Year over year, GOVX and its members have been such an incredible force for good for the families we serve," said Col Nick Nichols, President, Folds of Honor Foundation. "We are honored to continue to lock arms with them to provide life-changing educational scholarships to the families of our nation's heroes. It's because of great partners like GOVX these families know they re not forgotten."

A frequent contributor to Folds of Honor through their popular Volition America collection, 2025 marked the second consecutive year that Luminox stepped up to match GOVX Gives Back donations in support of the non-profit organization.

The PBR Pendleton Whisky Velocity Tour showcases the best bull riders from around the world competing in one of the most exciting live sporting events. As part of a multi-year agreement with PBR, GOVX proudly pledged a $50 donation to Folds of Honor for every 2025 Qualified Ride registered. Recently, representatives from GOVX presented the donation check at the PBR Velocity Tour Finals in Corpus Christi, TX, which were held from May 2-3, 2025.

"This total donation to Folds of Honor represents the best of what we are capable of when we unite for a common cause," said Alan Cole, GOVX CEO. "We are grateful to align with both PBR and Luminox once again to drive vital support for the families of fallen and disabled heroes."
