“Zero is the only number that matters when it comes to veteran suicide.”
What if the difference between life and death was a device, a community, or someone who just listens? On this deeply human episode of Doing Business With the Servant’s Heart, Steve Ramona sits down with Mark Casper, founder of Tech for Troops, a nonprofit transforming the lives of veterans through technology, connection, and compassion.
Mark opens with a raw truth: zero veteran suicides is the only acceptable goal. Facing sobering national statistics Mark and his team have saved at least 29 known lives through connection, community, and presence. From seeing a young veteran take his life in a hospital parking lot, to building gaming bunkers inside mental health institutions where veterans find support and friendship, Mark’s mission is both urgent and life‑giving.
You’ll hear how Tech for Troops started from a simple idea — a mom and her son wanting to provide a computer to a veteran — and grew into a nationwide community providing technology, digital literacy classes, and mental health connection. Mark shares powerful stories of veterans rebuilding self‑worth through learning computers, receiving compassion from peers, and overcoming isolation.
This episode doesn’t just educate — it ignites your own desire to make the world a little better today. Whether you are a business leader, a veteran, or someone searching for how to serve, Mark’s message is stunningly simple and profoundly human: connect, care, equip, and never underestimate the power of being there.
P.S. If you’ve ever felt stuck, unseen, or overwhelmed, this conversation will remind you that you matter more than you know and that the smallest connection can save a life.
