THE ORGANIZATION
Our Founder & CEO - Sergeant First Class Moore
Sergeant First Class Brian Moore enlisted in the U.S Army in July 1981 and retired after more than 20 years of active duty service in March 2002. After retiring from the Army, he worked at the Hanford Nuclear Reservation managing a portion of the cleanup efforts at the 105K East facility. In 2005, Brian was given an opportunity to work as a manager with BNSF Railway. After ten years with BNSF, he decided to retire to spend more time with family and on local veteran issues.
Since his retirement from the Army in 2002, Brian's passion has been helping his fellow veterans get in contact with local groups and organizations that support veterans' needs. He is working with business leaders in the community to provide assistance and has donated countless hours to local non-profits that provide assistance to veterans.
For several years now, Brian has donated countless hours and a large amount of his military pension towards helping disabled veterans. In 2016, some of his friends and family suggested that he start a local 501c3 charitable organization, and with that, Friends of Disabled Veterans was established.
Senior Operations Director and Treasurer - Khris Beyer
Khris Beyer volunteers as Senior Operations Director. She first became involved in the organization in late 2020, at the request of a close family friend and fellow veteran. In this role, Khris manages the formal planning, budgeting, and coordination of building projects for the Veterans Ranch, about a 15 minute drive, north west of Benton City.
Khris is a US Army veteran, mother of three sons who also served their country (Air Force, Space Force, and Army). She has been a contractor and entrepreneur for over 30 years, was a certified Project Management Professional and has a BA in Project Management. Her experience spans 12 countries and 15 states in both federal and commercial design build projects. Khris's teams and her leadership have been locally and nationally recognized.
Khris finally succeeded to retire in early 2026 and now focusses on continuing the development of the FODV Ranch. She occasionally get to golf with her husband and enjoy the outdoors. She feels very blessed to be able to deploy her skills to help bring the Friends of Disabled Veterans Ranch to fruition.
Secretary - Deborah Culverhouse
Deborah Culverhouse officially joined the Friends of Disabled Veterans (FODV) Board in January 2025, after years of active volunteer service beginning with the organization’s very first fundraising golf tournament. With a deep belief in serving those who have served, Deborah’s commitment is also rooted in her family history — both her father and brother proudly served in the U.S. Army.
She has a long record of community service, including involvement with the Carson Kolzig Foundation, Rotary, Soroptimists International, and Domestic Violence Services. She also served on the board of Partners with Care. Today, Deborah dedicates her time and energy to supporting FODV’s mission of creating a welcoming oasis at the Ranch for disabled veterans and their families.
Outside of her service work, Deborah enjoys golfing, cooking, and seeking new adventures with friends. Her happy place is spending time at Priest Lake, Idaho.
Mandi Greenwood
Mandi Greenwood joined the Friends of Disabled Veterans Board in January of 2026 after spearheading the sponsorship efforts of the Rattlesnake 4X4 club Rally of 2025 that benefited FODV.
Mandi is a US Navy Veteran, the daughter of US Navy Veteran, the mother of a Marine and her daughter in-law is in the Washington National Guard. Her family loyalty to service extends to two Nephews, a Marine who earned a Purple Heart in Iraq and another in the Army National Guard.
In 2016 Mandi and her husband, Lance Greenwood, a US Air Force Veteran and Retired Richland Fire Fighter founded the Rattlesnake 4X4 Club of the Tri-Cities. Their club has always had a commitment to service, from giving rides to hospitals to Doctors and Nurses during inclement weather, providing traffic control for community events such as Cool Desert Nights and Ironman, and to organizing road rallies that raise money to benefit charities including funds for hurricane and fire disasters and in 2025, Friends of Disabled Veterans. With over 30 years of Management experience as a Controller in the Automotive Dealership Industry, she is accomplished in Financial Management, Human Resources and Automotive Project Management. Additionally, she has served on the Board of the Tri-Cities Photography Club as a Treasurer 2018-2023 and Vice President 2024-2025.
When she's not working, on a four-wheeling adventure in her Jeep, pursuing her photography or spending time with her grandchildren, Mandi really enjoys time at the Ranch. It therefore has become a mission to be a liaison with FODV and RS4X4 for work parties and continued pursuit of the dream to have a place that all Veterans and First Responders, and their families can enjoy and find peace.
