The challenge coin artwork captures the grit, unity, and relentless hope that define our work. The backdrop blends the American and Afghan flags, honoring the partnership and shared struggle of the communities we serve. At the center sits our now‑iconic “angry duck,” a bit of hard‑won humor born when autocorrect softened a frequently used curse word in our crisis Signal chats, reminding us that even in the darkest moments, laughter kept us moving.
Balancing that levity is the image of the Greek Argo rescue ship, symbolizing the singular purpose that drives our coalition: to bring people to safety. Along the edges, steady hands extend toward the center, offering calm, grounding, and solidarity, echoing the collective response that rose in August 2021 and has never wavered since.
This piece is more than art. It’s a testament to resilience, partnership, and the community that refuses to give up. Shipping is included in cost within the United States.
