This Veterans Day, Main Light honors those who serve with a gift supporting genuine healing for U.S. Special Operations warriors, spouses and Gold Star families.

LAS VEGAS, NV (Nov. 11, 2026) — Main Light, a national entertainment technology rental and sales company, has donated $50,000 to The Station Foundation, a nonprofit that provides genuine healing for U.S. Special Operations Forces (SOF) and their families as they navigate the lasting impacts of military service.

The donation supports the foundation's programs and made Main Light a sponsor of its Special Forces • Special Voices fundraising dinner. Main Light was listed among the evening's top sponsors in the event program. The dinner was held Nov. 5 at One World Observatory atop One World Trade Center in New York City, one hundred floors above Ground Zero, in the building that rose where the Twin Towers once stood. The evening recognized 25 years of service since September 11 and honored the SOF families who have carried its cost.

Author and documentary filmmaker Sebastian Junger, who donated his time to the evening, moderated the panel “SOF Family Stories of Healing and Connection.” He was joined by three Station Foundation alumni: Brent Garrett, who has spent more than 20 years serving in Special Operations; Karen Hall, a Special Operations spouse of 17 years; and Tristyn Redd, a Gold Star son who first came to The Station in 2013 through its Gold Star program and now serves on the foundation's development team. Junger's book Tribe: On Homecoming and Belonging examines why service members struggle when they come home, the same question The Station Foundation was built to answer.

The evening closed with a live auction and paddle raise, with every paddle raise gift matched dollar-for-dollar up to $100,000. Auction items included the Fragments of Valor Knife, handcrafted by a retired Navy SEAL and set with pieces of history including steel from the World Trade Center's South Tower, and the Light The Way Home Lamps, made by a member of the SOF community from spent shell casings collected at his unit's training range.

Founded in 2011 by members of the SOF community, The Station Foundation offers immersive nine-day programs in Montana for service members, spouses, children, and Gold Star sons and daughters. Its Interwoven outreach program brings that curriculum to where SOF families live, with outStations at Camp Lejeune, N.C.; Fort Carson, Colo.; Fort Bragg, N.C.; and Virginia Beach, Va.
