Our Journey
The Warriors Rally Table Story
Warriors Rally Table was born from a simple but powerful belief: no warrior should fight alone, without practical resources, and a community of brotherhood and healing. Our story is one of faith, vision, and the unwavering commitment to create a seat at the table for every veteran.
“Come As You Are, Heal Together”
This isn't just our tagline—it's our promise to every veteran who finds their way to our table.
Meet Our Founder
Dave Bogaards is a full-time paramedic who recognized that no warrior should fight alone. Drawing from his own experiences and seeing the gaps in veteran support services, Dave envisioned something different.
He didn't just want to create another program—he wanted to build a table where every veteran could find a seat, a voice, and a path forward through Christ-centered fellowship and compassionate care.
His vision goes beyond traditional support services. He believes in creating safe faith-centered communities where veterans are fully known, deeply connected, and restored in spirit and truth through the redeeming power and grace of Jesus Christ.

Marcus Rodriguez
U.S. Army Infantry
2007-2015 • 3 Tours Afghanistan
“I came to WRT broken, angry, and lost. The brothers here didn't try to fix me - they just sat with me in the darkness until I could see light again. Christ met me at this table when I had nowhere else to turn.”
