From his experience in the Israel Defense Force (IDF) comes Ross’s COJECO BluePrint Fellowship community project designed to raise funds to support the IDF. The Project raised around $40,000 to support the IDF. With the money collected through fundraising events, goods and equipment will be acquired and delivered to Israel to give a tactical advantage to an individual Israeli soldier. As well as well as his/her unit in the urban theater of warfare. As part of these fundraising events for the project Ross Den had an exhibit of photographs depicting combat troops in training, deployment and war.
The event took place on April 16, 2016 at URBO 7th ave and 42nd Street with over 400 people in attendance.
