If you came home disabled from serving our country to a home that you could no longer use that’d be bittersweet. You’d be happy to be home, but unable to use it efectively.
But there’s hope…from an organization called “Homes for our Troops“. Let me quote from their web site about them:
Homes for Our Troops is a non-profit, non-partisan 501 (c)(3) organization founded in 2004. This organization is strongly committed to helping those who have selflessly given to their country and have returned home with serious disabilities and injuries. We assist severely injured Servicemen and Women and their immediate families by raising donations of money, building materials and professional labor and coordinating the process of building a new home or adapting an existing home for handicapped accessibility.
Best of all? All services provided by Homes for Our Troops are at no cost to the veterans they serve.
This is a couple of ways you can help ths worthy cause.
First, Homes for our Troops, in conjunction with Massachusetts radio station, WAAF, are co-sponsoring a Charity Motorcycle Run Saturday, August 4th, 2007.
Registration is $30 for one rider and $20 for an additional rider and includes:
- Texas sized breakfast in at registration
- Commemorative T-shirt (First 500 registrants)
- Live Concert by the Mill City Rockers! (America’s Favorite Biker Band!)
- Texas Roadhouse Chicken and Ribs BBQ at the end of the ride!

The second way to help is to buy a raffle ticke to the Homes for our Troops annual Harley-Davidson raffle! Tickest are $100 each and you have a 1/500th chance to win. See more details at the Homes for our Troops link here.
