He served his country for eight years and earned a combat action badge and an Army commendation medal. That service included a year in Ramadi, Iraq as part of Operation Iraqi Freedom, where he provided convoy security for support units and escorted them around the Iraq countryside. When he was honorably discharged from the military in 2009, he left with the invisible scars that so many veterans do.<\/p>\n<p>He credits his wife and seven-year-old daughter and counselors at the Veterans Administration for getting him through the worst of times but ever-present in his thoughts were those fellow veterans and active duty service members who didn\u2019t have the support he did. And he decided to take action.<\/p>\n<p>22-0 Real Estate was founded and named to represent and call attention to the estimated 22 veteran and active duty service member suicides that happen each day in this country. That translates to one every 65 minutes \u2013 a 22 percent higher rate than the general civilian population.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSuicide is preventable. Unfortunately, about 75 percent of veterans and active duty service members do not get the medical or mental health care to help them cope with the effects of their experiences and the struggles of returning to civilian life,\u201d said Farias. \u201cThis year, my goal is to raise $25,000 through buying and selling 50 clients\u2019 homes. That money will go to area non-profits that advocate for veterans at risk of suicide and homeless veterans.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Farias has presented one check so far with one more check presentation already scheduled. His business is also a title sponsor of the Golf \u2018Fore\u2019 Vets Tournament, hosted by Wishes 4 Warriors, on March 30th and is participating at the upcoming Ride for 22 Military Veteran Suicide Awareness Rally on April 27, 2019.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEvery time a client buys or sell a home, I get a lot of joy from seeing how positively it affects them. I\u2019m especially fortunate to know that I\u2019m lending a helping hand to those who deserve it most,\u201d added Farias. \u201cI have a happy marriage and beautiful daughter, a new baby on the way in August, and a career I love. I would never have thought that possible in the darkest years after I left the military. I am committed to helping other veterans know there is hope and help them get help.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>To contact Farias and find out more about 22-0 Real Estate, visit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.22tozero.com\/about\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">https:\/\/www.22tozero.com\/about\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>If you are a veteran or know of one in crisis, you can call the Veterans Crisis Line for confidential support 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year.
