Donny O’Malley
The Love Story behind Irreverent Warriors
Meet Donny O’ Malley
Due to losing comrades to suicide, Donny O’Malley founded Irreverent Warriors. Furthermore, he saw how isolation and PTSD can lead to suicidal tendencies. So, at his gatherings, he strives for security and safety that encourages expression. Currently, Donny coordinates gatherings. However, he hopes soldiers everywhere feel empowered to orchestrate events themselves.
Similarly, he hopes warriors see how I.W. provides safe spaces for expressing hurt and trauma. Hence his desire to create space for communion between hurting warriors. Above all, Donny recognizes how these relationships ease the pain soldiers experience. For that reason, hopefully, soldiers will orchestrate their own meetings and branch out.
“It was harder to lose a guy to suicide than to lose someone in combat.” — Donny O’Malley
