A.G.R.I. is a non-profit organization relying on the willing hearts and hands of our volunteers and the moral and financial support of our partner organizations and funding organizations. There is much to do for our land, our wildlife and our disabled American heroes. We are grateful to all who lend support toward these goals.
We graciously accept monetary donations as well as equipment and supplies to assist in our restoration endeavors. Click Here to learn how you can help
Our Mission Statement
A.G.R.I. was founded to give tribute and support to the military men and women who answer the call from Lady Liberty. Without our military, we would not have a United States, or a homeland full of freedoms and opportunities. The “Land of the Free” stands only because it is “the Home of the Brave.”
The 9/11 aftermath left military and civilian responders sharing common ground in their desire to protect and defend our homeland. Unfortunately, it also left them to share common ground through the illnesses and injuries, exposures and stresses suffered as a result of their service, whether at Ground Zero or in the deserts of Iraq and Afghanistan. For too many, Post-Traumatic Stress Syndrome and depression are also common ground.
