A 14-year-old student, five-person team and JAXWALK's solo "All or Nothing" crossing unite to raise money for Salute Our Warriors and America's veterans.
GRAND HAVEN, Mich. - Michimich -- A 14-year-old Warren student, a team of five walkers, and world-traveling endurance walker Jack "JAXWALK" Huffman are joining together for America's High Five, an extraordinary three-part journey covering approximately 825 miles across Michigan to raise money for Salute Our Warriors and America's veterans.
Hail Our heroes® is the presenting sponsor of America's High Five and will donate 100% of the proceeds from T-shirt sales to Salute Our Warriors in support of America's veterans.
The journey begins August 10, when 14-year-old Jasmine of Warren, Michigan, sets out from South Haven to Port Huron, carrying the American flag and walking more than 250 miles in eight days or less — the equivalent of approximately 10 marathons.
Jasmine's goal is to raise $25,000 for our veterans as America celebrates its 250th birthday.
A recent graduate of Warren Woods Middle School with a 4.0 GPA, Jasmine is a member of student council, plays the oboe and flute, participates in color guard and swimming, and was part of a school band that received first-place recognition from the Michigan School Band and Orchestra Association.

But Jasmine's crossing is only the first part of America's High Five.
PART TWO — WE'RE IN THIS TOGETHER
On August 18, after Jasmine reaches Port Huron, a team of five walkers will begin the second crossing, walking approximately 275 miles from Port Huron back to South Haven in support of Salute Our Warriors.
The team includes community advocates, endurance walkers, a U.S. Air Force veteran and members of the JAXWALK family, including Oliver Gantt, Dereck Coe, Morgan Huffman and Jack "JAXWALK" Huffman, along with a fifth team member.
PART THREE — ALL OR NOTHING
When the second crossing reaches South Haven, Jack "JAXWALK" Huffman will turn around and begin the third and final crossing back to Port Huron — completely alone.
Jack will be the only person to complete all three crossings of America's High Five®.
He will attempt to cover the final approximately 275 miles in less than five days, pushing his physical and mental endurance to the limit.
When all three crossings are completed, the journey will total approximately:
825 MILES ACROSS MICHIGAN IN ROUGHLY 20 DAYS.
For Jack, the final crossing is "All or Nothing." It will also mark his ninth crossing of Michigan.
Jack has spent years using endurance walking to raise money and awareness for charitable causes. Through his journeys, he and his supporters have raised nearly $500,000 for organizations supporting children, animals and veterans.
