Our Story
Honoring Every Journey
Major’s Mark was founded on a simple, powerful principle learned through a life of service as a retired Army Major: every single journey has a story worth honoring.
This belief is the bedrock of everything we create. We see the world as a collection of unique paths, quiet struggles, and unseen triumphs. Our mission is to craft tangible reminders of the strength, resilience, and spirit that connect us all.
From a Mission to a Movement
How do you take a mission and turn it into a living, breathing movement? You start with something simple. Something everyday. Something that can travel from one hand to another, carrying a message with it.
You start with a pen.
The Pen Drop Project is the culmination of our belief. It is our way of transforming a philosophy into a tangible experiment in kindness. Each pen is intentionally designed and engraved not just to write, but to be a catalyst for connection—a small, anonymous gift from one person to another.
A Choice of Kindness
The colors of our pens are the colors of our story. We chose them to represent the two fundamental ways we can support one another on our journeys.
- Journey Glow Yellow is the color of a day made brighter—a radiant light of optimism and encouragement meant to be left for a stranger to find.
- Project Poppy Red is the color of courage and resilience—a bold statement of honor and a quiet nod to the strength it takes to face a challenge.

Whether you’re the one dropping the pen or the one discovering it, you are now part of this story. This project is a testament to the idea that a small gesture can create a big ripple, and that sometimes, the most powerful connections are the ones we make with people we may never meet.
