UXO History of Helping Out
Giving Back to the VFW
UXO Supplements was proud to partner with Berserker Strength and Conditioning during their Black Frost Strongman Competition on January 16th, 2021 — an event that brought together some of the strongest and most determined athletes in the region. Throughout the day, competitors pushed their limits in a true display of power, grit, and resilience, creating an unforgettable atmosphere for everyone in attendance.
As part of our commitment to supporting both the fitness community and our nation's veterans, UXO Supplements organized a special rifle raffle during the event. Thanks to the incredible generosity of the attendees and the local community, we were able to raise over $2,500. Every dollar raised was donated directly to the local Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) post, helping them continue their vital mission of supporting veterans and their families.
We are honored to stand alongside organizations like Berserker Strength and Conditioning and the VFW, and we look forward to continuing our efforts to give back to those who have given so much for us.
VETERAN SUICIDE AWARENESS
UXO Supplements was proud to sponsor Berserker SKOS Strong Man Competition on May 15th, 2020. Athletes showcased extraordinary strength, determination, and heart during this event. The energy was electric as competitors battled it out across a series of grueling challenges, cheered on by an enthusiastic crowd that shared the same passion for fitness, resilience, and community.
As part of our ongoing commitment to supporting veterans, we hosted another rifle raffle during the event. Thanks to the amazing support from attendees and the broader community, we successfully raised over $1,880. All proceeds were donated directly to Mission22, an organization dedicated to raising awareness and providing critical resources to help prevent veteran suicide.
We are honored to contribute to Mission22’s important work, helping to fund programs that offer hope, healing, and support to those who have sacrificed so much. UXO Supplements remains committed to standing with our veterans and continuing our mission to make a difference, both inside and outside the gym.
VETERAN SUPPORT
UXO Supplements sponsored The Mecca's Strongest Man Competition on June 12th, 2021. Bringing together some of the toughest and most inspiring athletes to compete in a true test of strength, endurance, and spirit. The day was filled with powerful performances, an incredible sense of camaraderie, and a shared commitment to causes bigger than ourselves.
As part of the event, we organized another rifle raffle, continuing a tradition that has become a cornerstone of our mission to give back. Thanks to the overwhelming support from competitors, spectators, and the local community, we raised an impressive $3,600. Every penny of the proceeds was donated directly to the Disabled American Veterans (DAV) organization.
This donation will help support DAV’s critical efforts to assist veterans as they transition from military to civilian life, ensuring they receive the benefits and resources they have rightfully earned. At UXO Supplements, we are deeply committed to standing alongside those who have served, and we are proud to play a small part in helping them build successful futures beyond their service.
RUCK100
Over Memorial Day Weekend 2021, Jon Klipstein of UXO Supplements, along with two other strong-willed and determined individuals, set out on an extraordinary mission to honor our nation’s heroes. Together, they rucked an incredible 100 miles, each carrying 35 pounds on their backs, pushing through both physical and mental barriers in a true test of endurance, grit, and heart.
Their journey wasn’t just about personal challenge — it was about making a real impact. Through generous donations and sponsorships, they raised over $7,500, with 100% of the proceeds donated directly to Mission22. This incredible organization continues to lead the charge in raising awareness and providing critical support to prevent veteran suicide, a cause that hits close to home for so many.
At UXO Supplements, we believe in putting action behind our words, and this ruck was a powerful reminder of what can be achieved when passion, purpose, and community come together. We are proud to support Mission22 and will continue to fight for those who fought for us.

Bringing the community together
UXO Supplements and Rippd Nutrition proudly joined forces to create an unforgettable local event "Freedom Fest". It was a day filled with energy, passion, and a shared commitment to giving back. The event featured live music, a variety of vendors, high-intensity deadlift and pull-up challenges, and a highly anticipated rifle raffle — all fueled by the incredible spirit of our community.
Thanks to the overwhelming support from everyone who showed up, participated, and donated, we were able to raise $2,800.

"F" Cancer
Shortly after celebrating his 21st birthday, one of our own was faced with a life-changing diagnosis: Stage 3 cancer. In true UXO Supplements spirit, we refused to stand by. Instead, we rallied the community with the support of Uplifted Gym and several other fitness-focused companies to stand shoulder to shoulder with him in his fight hosting Reps 4 a Reason!
The event filled with live music, free energy drinks, and an enormous raffle packed with amazing prizes. To make it even more meaningful, we pledged to donate $1 for every deadlift rep completed — every lift a symbol of strength and solidarity for Sam’s battle.
Thanks to the passion, heart, and generosity of everyone involved, we raised over $5,000 to help cover Sam’s treatment costs and lost wages. At UXO Supplements, we believe family means never fighting alone. When one of our own is attacked, we don't hesitate — we fight back, harder and stronger together.
