Coaster Posted April 23, 2015 Report Share Posted April 23, 2015 This July my wife and I will be driving over 2500 miles with Rally North America in order to raise funds and awareness for Hope For The Warriors®. Our country has been sending the young men and women in our military service into harms way since 2003. These brave people serve our country so that we can maintain our way of life and our freedoms. Upon their return to civilian life many find themselves in need of things that our government is either unable or unwilling to provide. That is why Hope For The Warriors® and their multiple support directives are so important. I encourage you to take a look at this charity's mission and their effective and efficient use of funds through the multiple charity rating services like Charity Navigator. I think you will agree that they are one of few veteran charities out there doing great work for all the right reasons. It is our hope that you will join us by making a donation to support the cause. All of our costs to be in the rally have been paid separately; all donations go directly to Hope For The Warriors®! Your contribution is greatly appreciated. Donate Here or continue reading for more info. More about Rally North America: Rally North America is a scavenger hunt style (automotive) multi-state road rally event. The Rally North America events have raised over $300,000 for charity since its inception in 2009 and is a not-for-profit organization. Established in the winter of 2009 Rally North America is aimed at bringing automotive enthusiasts from all over the United States and Canada, together for the purpose of Auto rallying. Each rally organized by Rally North America carries a common idea, driving for a cause. Rally North America believes that by combining the love of the automotive lifestyle and a worthy charity organization, it is possible to do something “good” through the automotive hobby. More about Hope For The Warriors®: Hope For The Warriors® was founded by military wives in 2006 as they witnessed, firsthand, the effects of the war on service members and their families. Hope For The Warriors® remains grounded in family values as the organization expands both the span of programs offered and the number of wounded, family members, and families of the fallen assisted. We believe those touched by military service can succeed at home by restoring their sense of self, family, and hope. Nationally, Hope For The Warriors® provides comprehensive support programs for service members, veterans, and military families that are focused on transition, health and wellness, peer engagement, and connections to community resources.
