About The Valor Spear
The Valor Spear recognizes exceptional courage and individuals who serve as role models through their life-saving efforts.
Our Story
Over the years, The Valor Spear has become one of the most prestigious non-political honors for individuals dedicated to protecting and serving their communities. Guided by an unwavering mission to inspire courage and drive positive change globally, the award is presented by the OPRA Gratefulness Fund, a non-profit organization established in 2020.
The Valor Spear was established by a group of operatives who recognized the importance of honoring extraordinary individuals making a difference. Inspired by the ancient symbol of the spear, which represents courage and precision, this award serves as a tribute to those who demonstrate exceptional valor in their fields.
The award is supported by the OPRA Gratefulness Fund and our generous sponsors.
