I am the special events director for The Heroes Project, an organization that works with the veteran, solider and military families community on all levels. Our mission is to improve the care and protection of heroes through individual support, community empowerment and systemic change. We support and organize climbing programs for wounded soldiers and veterans which will take them to the seven summits of the world. Video footage of these climbs will be used as part of advocacy and empowerment programs.
On April 14 2013, we are climbing Mount Baldy as a fundraiser for our foundation. We will have veterans, civilians, our children, and dogs, all come together to Climb for Heroes. This is a fun activity supported by the Forestry Service and accesible to all ages and fitness levels. I am hopeful that you will consider posting our flyer and web address on your website.
This is the little blurb we used on Facebook: Bring your friends and family to Climb for Heroes on April 14th. We are raising money for The Heroes Project, a 501c3 foundation that support injured veterans and organizes climbs to the sevent summits of the world. Fun, fit and philanthropy for the whole family. For more information go to: www.climbforheroes.org
Thank you for your time and support. Please contact me with any questions you may have about our event. Any postings you can make to support us would be beyond appreciated.
Thank you,
JJ
