DVL.DGS 2022 Fundraiser

We Stood for Those Who Serve

The DVL.DGS NFT Project has closed and we would like to thank all our supporters! DVL.DGS is a collection of 400 unique, proud and motivated bulldog warriors, commemorating the U.S. Marines. Each DVL.DGS is an Ethereum-based NFT and the project was created to raise money to support health, wellness and education initiatives for U.S. service members past and present. All proceeds from the original NFT sales were donated to our partners at the Marines’ Memorial Association & Foundation, The San Diego Veterans Coalition, The 38 Challenge, and the Irreverent Warriors.

This cause-driven NFT collection features DVL.DGS from private to general, male and female, in camouflage utilities with a variety of cool accessories, including collars and tattoos.

Sold Out!

WHY DVL.DGS?

The collection’s name reflects the iconic nickname for U.S. Marines: Devil Dogs.

In World War I, the Marines fought so fiercely at the battle of Belleau Wood that the Germans called them “teufel hunden,” after the Devil Dogs of Bavarian folklore. The Corps adopted the bulldog as its official mascot after World War I ended.

The 38 Challenge was founded in memory of former Navy Linebacker (#38) and USMC Captain Matthew Brewer who died by suicide in 2021. The mission of The 38 Challenge is to eliminate veteran suicide through shattering the stigma associated with seeking help in warrior culture through promoting and teaching vulnerability.

Our mission is to bring veterans together using humor and camaraderie to improve mental health and prevent veteran suicide. Since 2015, IW has brought tens of thousands of veterans and military service members together at events across the world. These events provide unconventional therapy to our veterans and military and introduce them to a lasting support network that offers camaraderie, understanding, and accountability. Our organization’s unconventional methods are reaching veterans that no one else will and saving lives that no one else can.

With over 150 unique member and participating veteran support organizations SDVC works to build, strengthen, and maintain a well-connected, coordinated, and integrated community to meet the needs of transitioning service members, veterans, and their families and show them they are home in San Diego.
