Salute to Soldiers Foundation

Much has changed since we began fundraising for America's VetDogs in 2018, but our commitment to their mission has remained the same.

Since then, our supporters have helped us reach an incredible milestone: an all-time donation of $100,000. It was an honor to visit the AVD campus to mark that achievement and see firsthand the incredible work being done each day. Witnessing that dedication up close only strengthened our resolve and deepened our commitment to this mission.

We are proud to support an organization that provides these life-changing companions at no cost to those who have served our country, and we look forward to continuing this work together in the years ahead.

We’ll be there!! Come see us on the main concourse, where we’ll be promoting this year’s golf tournament taking place on Friday, September 18, at Ledges Golf Club.
