Call of Duty Launches C.O.D.E. Valor Pack for Veterans Day as Endowment Passes 180,000 Job Placements

The Call of Duty Endowment is marking its 17th anniversary this Veterans Day, and it has a new milestone to report: more than 180,000 veterans have now been placed into high-quality jobs in the United States and the United Kingdom through the Endowment's work.

This year's campaign centres on the story of Kyle Carpenter, a U.S. Marine Corps veteran and Medal of Honor recipient. In November 2010, while serving in Afghanistan, Carpenter used his body to shield a fellow Marine from a grenade blast. He survived catastrophic injuries and years of surgeries and rehabilitation, and the Endowment has partnered with him and the Infinity Ward team to tell his story in Forged in Valor, a three-part video series about his service, recovery, and outlook.

Carpenter's story also inspired the new Call of Duty Endowment (C.O.D.E.) Valor Pack, available now in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 and Call of Duty: Warzone. Every item in the pack was designed with his journey in mind, from a Melee Weapon Blueprint inscribed with "Worth Fighting For" to item names such as "Relentless" and "Still Standing". One hundred percent of Activision's net proceeds from the pack, less VAT and sales tax, will be donated to the Endowment, which is working toward helping 200,000 veterans find meaningful careers by 2030.

Players who own the pack and launch Modern Warfare 4 or Warzone between 6PM PT on November 10 and 10AM PT on November 12 will also receive in-game rewards directly in their inventory: two 1-hour Double Player XP tokens, two 1-hour Double Weapon XP tokens, two 1-hour Double Battle Pass XP tokens, and one SERE Kit for DMZ.

The Endowment has lined up more ways to give back beyond the game. Through a partnership with Lyft, riders can round up their fare to the Endowment through the app's Round Up & Donate option. At participating Pilot travel centres, guests can round up purchases to the nearest dollar until November 15, with the Endowment receiving 100 percent of the funds donated; since 2019, Pilot and its guests have raised more than $6 million, helping over 10,000 veterans move into civilian careers, and this year's goal is to help place 1,500 veterans.

Polaris is running an in-game community mission from 9AM PT on November 11 through 9AM PT on November 25. Once players collectively complete 5 million DAGOR rides across Modern Warfare 4 and Warzone, Polaris will donate $25,000 to the Endowment, and one follower of the Endowment's social channels who likes the official challenge announcement will be randomly selected for a Polaris Adventures off-road ride experience.
