The 1%
The “1 percent” is a phrase often heard throughout society to refer to the uber-wealthy. At Reviresco, we ask, “What about the other 1 percent?” referring to the one percent of society who chooses to serve in the Armed Forces.
Service members serve for ALL OF US. They are apolitical, don’t choose when to leave their homes, and often don’t choose where they are going. They simply choose to protect us when our nation faces problems.
While numerous organizations assist soldiers in reintegrating back into society, our founders saw a drastic need to step in on the civilian side of the issue. With so many service members entering the civilian workforce, Reviresco focused on helping current and future business leaders understand how to engage with veterans and understand the innumerable ways a strong veteran workforce will help their company’s culture, cohesiveness, and competence.

What People & Companies Have Said About Us
"The presentation...opened our eyes to a problem that we didn’t even know about."
Your presentation was helpful to our employees in raising the awareness of the role of service members and veterans in today’s society, but more importantly, taking time to explore our own actions, words, and behaviors on how we view them. Your workshop provided some opportunities for open discussion and dialogue among employees to share thoughts and ideas on this special segment of our population.
I want to thank Alex and Micah specifically for the outstanding job. While I’ve always held members of the military in high regard, you’ve given us all tools now to better show our appreciation in ways that will benefit our military veterans and our relationships with them in the workplace and beyond.
During my final year at the university, I had the privilege of meeting [Reviresco]. I was amazed at the incredible impact that a handful of students could have on improving the perception of veterans and how civilians could be of help by just taking the time to talk to veterans about their experiences. With the help of Reviresco, I am confident that the state of this country’s civil-military divide is in fact mendable and will improve through their efforts.
The reason I believe Reviresco, Inc. is important is because I met a lot of civilians who were not pro-military while I was active. I did not believe that anyone would not be in support of the men and women who sacrifice so much for our freedoms, but I had many people refer to me as a killer or as if I had no emotion simply because of my profession. Through the work of organizations like Reviresco, Inc. we can work towards a future where everyone respects and appreciates the losses that some take to make sure everyone has a chance to live how they see fit.
I didn’t realize veterans were so lost and that asking them a few questions could help. I now know there are groups present that are bringing veterans closer to civilians. This presentation was definitely effective and I look forward to learning more about Reviresco.
The information you provided to us in the presentation really showed how unappreciated military personnel feel[s] once they return home from deployment and how civilians can change that. It is important to value their feelings, emotions, and sacrifices because they are the ones who fight to protect us every day.”
