From their website:

"If you’re a veteran of Iraq, Afghanistan, or another theatre of the War on Terror, sign up below to show up on April 8 and tell Congress to support General Petraeus and our fellow troops as they continue to succeed in Iraq and Afghanistan"

That's pretty much the gist of their website, a recruitment drive with a political message more than anything else. Opposition to their views doesn't sound like part of the planned program. They're seeking donations but money is already in place for their travel. I'm not going to spend the money to determine how they're capitalized, but maybe someone with a subscription can take a look.
