The Baltimore Ravens and Leidos, a FORTUNE® 500 science and technology leader, will partner for the Ravens' 2020 Salute to Service game on Sunday, Nov. 22 vs. the Tennessee Titans – supporting an initiative designed to honor service members in all branches of the military. Locally, the Ravens and Leidos will join forces on several events leading up to the game to assist and show appreciation for military members stationed in Maryland.
MONDAY, NOV. 16
Merging Vets & Players (MVP) Virtual Huddle
(Note: This event is not open to the general public or media.)
On Monday (11/16), several Ravens Legends and local combat veterans will participate in a virtual workout, facilitated by Merging Vets and Players (MVP). Following the workout, they will take part in a "huddle," which will serve as an opportunity for open dialogue, peer support and to build camaraderie.
MVP empowers combat veterans and former athletes by connecting them after the uniform comes off; providing them a new team to assist with the transition, promote personal development and to show them they are never alone.
