Notice the new blog look, caption and purpose of the ride? With Veteran's Day less than a week away, it is exciting to announce that my adventure is dedicated to supporting and raising awareness for the men and women of our armed forces who have served and been wounded.
During my adult career I have been involved in several projects that benefit our troops, normal people who put their lives on hold to serve our Country. In 2008 I was honored to receive the Minute Man Award for the efforts that supported 720 deployed troops during the holiday season. Programs like Feed Uncle Sam and the ongoing support of Operation Give (http://www.operationgive.org) . In addition to supporting projects, Mesa Moving & Storage (my employer) relocates thousands of active military families every year. It is an honor to serve those who serve our Country and allow us to enjoy our freedoms and be safe in a sometimes treacherous World.
While crossing America I will be focused on raising awareness for Wounded Warriors Project (WWP) (https://www.woundedwarriorproject.org) as well as driving donations to support the programs that directly benefit American men and women who serve our Country, who need our assistance. We owe it to them for their sacrifice. We cannot forget them and what they've done for each of us.
This is the first of many posts as I work to support Wounded Warrior Project.
