Nominate a Survivor

Life is full of horrible events that we wish no one has to go through, but sadly, trauma is as guaranteed as death and taxes.  Many people experience tragedy and trauma, and somehow they triumph over it. The Broken Sword represents surviving through life’s most difficult times and fighting to victory even if fighting while feeling broken!

Completing any physical challenge is difficult enough, but some have had to overcome more than just training and conditioning to get to the starting line. If you know anyone who has conquered more than just the event they’re competing in, we want to hear about it! Nominate someone whose story needs to be told. If they are chosen they will receive the broken sword trophy which includes the broken sword, plaque, poem, and necklace. If your nominee wins you also receive a broken sword necklace or challenge coin. It’s free to nominate and though only one nomination per nominator per event, there is no limit on how many people nominate an individual, so get others involved to increase their chances of winning! Also chances increase if you post your nomination video (not required, but encouraged) using the hashtag #pspsbrokensword

To nominate fill out this form and attach a one-minute video about the person you wishing to be recognized. .  If willing, please attach a one-minute video about the person you wishing to be recognized. If possible, please include any pictures or video of the person you are nominating.

This nomination and award is 100% free. No sign up, purchase, or donation required. The sole purpose of the Broken Sword Award is to raise awareness for PTSD.  We hope that by spreading awareness, we can increase the conversation so that more people are willing to find the help they need to overcome trauma and rediscover the champion within.
