Suntex Marinas announced today that Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer Bryan Redmond has been elected to the board of directors of the North Texas Chapter of Folds of Honor, further strengthening a longstanding relationship between Suntex Marinas and one of America's most respected nonprofit organizations supporting military and first responder families.

Redmond's appointment represents the culmination of years of dedicated support by both he and Suntex Marinas for the mission of Folds of Honor. Through company-wide fundraising initiatives, customer engagement programs, and charitable events, Suntex and its team members have helped raise nearly $1 million in support of Folds of Honor since the organization became a focus of the company's philanthropic efforts. In 2026 alone, Suntex is on pace to contribute approximately $200,000 toward scholarships for the spouses and children of fallen or disabled U.S. service members and first responders.

Founded in 2007 by Lt Col Dan Rooney, Folds of Honor has awarded nearly 73,000 educational scholarships totaling more than $340 million across all 50 states. The organization provides educational support ranging from K-12 private school tuition and tutoring to college, trade school, technical certifications, graduate degrees, and professional programs.

"Folds of Honor represents the very best of America, ensuring military and first responder families have access to the educational resources they deserve," said Redmond. "Being elected to the Board of Directors of the North Texas Chapter is a tremendous honor. Every scholarship is an investment in a family's future and a meaningful way to honor those who have sacrificed so much for our country."

Under Redmond's leadership, Suntex Marinas has integrated support for Folds of Honor into its culture, engaging customers, employees, and boating communities across the country. The company's fundraising efforts have directly contributed to educational opportunities for scholarship recipients while raising awareness of the organization's mission throughout the recreational boating industry.

"Bryan Redmond's election to the North Texas Board reflects both his personal commitment and the extraordinary support that Suntex Marinas has provided to Folds of Honor over many years," said Lt Col Rooney, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Folds of Honor. "Bryan understands that education changes lives and that honoring the sacrifice of our nation's heroes requires meaningful action. We are grateful for his leadership, his passion for our mission, and the incredible impact Suntex continues to make on behalf of military and first responder families."
