Lilo Rolls for Our Heroes| We Defy Veterans Day Ruck & Roll

Hi! My name is Aliana, but everyone calls me Lilo! I’m 10 years old, and I’m a proud Jiu-Jitsu competitor, military kid, and young ambassador for the We Defy Foundation. Growing up in a military family has taught me the importance of service, sacrifice, and giving back. Jiu-Jitsu has helped me become stronger, more confident, and taught me to never give up, even when things get tough. I’m participating in the We Defy Veterans Day Ruck & Roll because I want to help give our veterans the same opportunity to find strength, healing, and a supportive community through Jiu-Jitsu. Our veterans have sacrificed so much for us, and now it’s my turn to give something back. No matter how young you are, you can still make a difference! Please consider donating and helping me support those who have served our country. Together, we can make a difference, one roll at a time!

Lilo Rolls for Our Heroes — Giving Back to Those Who Served!

Lilo Rolls for Our Heroes — Giving Back to Those Who Served! 

Hi everyone! It’s Lilo!

This November, I’m proud to participate in the 2026 We Defy Veterans Day Ruck & Roll as a young ambassador for the We Defy Foundation!

Growing up in a military family, I’ve learned that serving our country takes courage, sacrifice, and strength. As a Jiu-Jitsu competitor, I’ve also learned how much this sport can change lives. It’s given me confidence, taught me resilience, and surrounded me with an amazing community.

Now, I want to help give that same opportunity to our nation’s veterans.

I’m rolling for something bigger than medals, trophies, or winning matches. I’m rolling for our heroes! ❤️

The We Defy Foundation helps combat veterans overcome challenges through Jiu-Jitsu, providing opportunities for healing, connection, and a renewed sense of purpose.

Here’s how you can help me make a difference:

Donate: Every dollar brings us closer to helping another veteran step onto the mats

Share: Help spread my mission by sharing this page with your family, friends, and Jiu-Jitsu community.

❤️ Support: Whether you donate or simply help spread the word, you’re part of something bigger!

Our veterans have given so much for us. This is my chance to give something back, one roll at a time.

I’m only 10 years old, but I believe you don’t have to be big to make a BIG difference!

Thank you for supporting me, our veterans, and the We Defy Foundation!

With love and gratitude,

Lilo
