 What is the End of Watch Program?
The End of Watch Program is a collaboration between Grunt Style and Folds of Honor to honor fallen first responders. Each month, we create a custom-designed shirt to pay tribute to these heroes, with 70% of the profits going directly to the family and 30% being donated to the Folds of Honor’s scholarship program. This initiative aims to provide both financial support and educational opportunities for the families left behind.
How does the program work?
Each month, a new shirt is created in collaboration with the family of a fallen first responder. All profits from these shirts directly benefit the family, with a portion being donated by Grunt Style to the Folds of Honor to be applied toward the scholarship initiatives of Folds of Honor. This partnership ensures that the hero’s legacy lives on through financial and educational support.
Who does the program benefit?
The program supports families of fallen first responders by providing financial aid through the profits from shirt sales. Additionally, part of the proceeds are donated to the Folds of Honor to be utilized for additional educational scholarships, giving these families opportunities for a brighter future.
How can I support the End of Watch Program?
You can support the program by purchasing the custom-designed shirts available each month. Every purchase directly honors a fallen hero and provides critical support to their family.
Where can I find the custom shirts?

How are the fallen heroes selected?
Grunt Style works closely with Folds of Honor and their scholarship recipients to select a new fallen hero each month. This ensures that we honor individuals from diverse backgrounds and recognize the sacrifices made across all communities.
What happens to the profits from shirt sales?
