No One Fights Alone: Our Partners
98 Octane is powered by a network of mission-driven partners. From veteran-owned businesses to health-focused organizations, these partnerships fuel our ability to serve MFRs…Military, Veterans, and First Responders, every single day.
Why Partners
Partnerships are at the heart of 98 Octane’s mission
We believe it takes a united front to fight burnout, rebuild resilience, and provide MFRs with the tools they need to live longer, stronger lives. By working with allies who share our values, we expand our reach, deepen our impact, and ensure that no MFR has to face these challenges alone.
From farm-to-table food networks and veteran-owned companies to sponsors who believe in wellness and community, our partners help us transform words into action. Together, we build stronger communities, one initiative, one class, and one meal at a time.
PSU brings the kind of innovation and infrastructure that turns big ideas into bigger impact. Through shared education initiatives and wellness collaborations, we’re building a platform that trains the next generation of health-minded warriors.
Because at 98 Octane, we don’t just hand out checklists, we create curriculum. And PSU is a vital part of that educational firepower.
PEnn State Outreach
Pennsylvania Department of Veterans Affairs (PA DVA)
The PA DVA stands with us in a shared mission: making sure every veteran in Pennsylvania gets not just access to care, but to community, accountability, and long-term health.
Together, we’re building a bridge between government support and ground-level transformation. From food access to training cohorts, this partnership brings fuel and structure to those who’ve already given everything.
Brave Bean
Brave Bean isn't just a coffee company…it's a mission-driven fuel source. With every cup, they back the mindset and metabolic needs of those working on the front lines of crisis and service.
Their collaboration with 98 Octane supports our pay-it-forward model, keeping responders energized without the crash. Real caffeine. Real purpose. No fluff.
ed shults ford
When mission meets machinery, you need partners who build for the long haul. Shults Ford delivers just that — a robust backbone of logistics, vehicles, and support in the Greater Pittsburgh area. From rugged work trucks to advanced EVs, they power the gear we use to reach more front lines.
Their commitment doesn’t end at sales. With factory-trained service teams, mobile service options, and a vast parts network, Shults ensures our transport and supply chains never miss a beat. They don’t just sell us vehicles…they keep us operational.
In a mission where every mile counts, Shults Ford is more than a partner. They’re one of our strongest assets.
ROTC — reserve officers’ training corps
Army ROTC (Reserve Officers’ Training Corps) develops future Army leaders through college-based training that blends academics, physical development, and leadership. The program supports cadets with scholarships covering tuition, books, and stipends while preparing them to commission as officers.
This partnership with 98 Octane aligns because both organizations invest in discipline, resilience, and mission-oriented leadership. ROTC builds leaders from the ground up—and 98 Octane fuels those leaders’ health, performance, and longevity.
American Red Cross — Greater Pennsylvania Region
In moments of crisis, the American Red Cross shows up fast, ready, and focused…just like the people we serve. Through our partnership with the Greater Pennsylvania Region, we’re not just responding to emergencies. We’re building a response-ready community of trained, fueled, and mission-driven first responders.
Together, we work to strengthen the front line by combining critical care, trauma readiness, and frontline nutrition. When the call comes in, we want responders who are already equipped: mentally, physically, and operationally.
It’s not about recovery. It’s about readiness.
Hungry (Food Solutions)
Hungry brings the heat…literally. As a food service partner, they help us scale our mission to feed MFRs (military, veterans, and first responders) across the country with clean, high-quality, chef-driven meals.
Their logistics and chef network let us take control of what goes into our cohorts’ bodies because burnout starts with blood sugar, and strength starts with satiety. With Hungry on board, we’re turning meals into medicine, one delivery at a time.
This isn’t catering. This is combat-ready nutrition.
CYTO | PHL
CYTO doesn’t deal in fluff…they deal in facts. This Philadelphia-based innovation hub is redefining how we track performance, recovery, and cellular-level health. Their partnership with 98 Octane powers our ability to test, measure, and personalize health strategies for the people who need them most.
From gut health to inflammation markers, CYTO gives us data to back our mission and proof that food, movement, and mindset can change a life from the inside out. Their tech meets our training, and the results speak for themselves.
This isn’t wellness. It’s science, delivered with precision.
