ABOUT THE DEFENDER SERVICE AWARDS PRESENTED BY CHASE
Nonprofits are the unsung heroes of our communities. For decades, Defender has created vehicles with the legendary capability needed to take service workers on their mission to help others, and for the past four years, it's also been our mission to recognize these selfless organizations through the Defender Service Awards. Since its inception in 2021, we've awarded over $1 million and 24 custom Defender models to these deserving groups.
Now in 2025, we're celebrating our fifth year of recognizing extraordinary nonprofits, continuing to award six customized Defender 130 vehicles to six charitable organizations across the US, Puerto Rico and Canada who are supporting their communities every day.
Each category finalist will be given a $5,000 USD cash prize to aid in their services, while the winners in each category will receive $30,000 USD. Special thanks to our partnerships with Chase, Artemis, Disney, Hearts & Science, ei3, PELICAN, OUTSIDE Interactive, Inc and S&P Global for helping to make this possible.
“Celebrating the organizations that make a difference in our communities speaks to the core of the Defender brand – that it is most powerful when it’s on a mission to help others.”
