My Personal Page -
Hello friends and family,
As many of you know, I have been attending Carry the Load for 12 Years now. I participate in the Dallas Memorial Day relay every year, and as of 2016 the nonprofit I founded (Farmers Assisting Returning Military F.A.R.M.) became one of the many partners with Carry the Load. Together we have worked to bring back the meaning of Memorial Day and to honor those who gave their lives for the freedoms we have the pleasure of experiencing every day. F.A.R.M. also works to raise awareness for veteran-based issues, as well as fundraising, in order to continue F.A.R.M.’s mission of integrating returning veterans into society and finding new purpose in the field of agriculture. We provide them with a new mission of taking on the current issues of food insecurity. We facilitate this by providing educational workshops and internships in a work intensive yet therapeutic farm setting. All the while helping veterans reestablish those close bonds they had while active in the military, which provides them with a new peer support network.
For those of you who do not know me you can check out my bio on our website here, https://www.farmingveterans.org/founders.html
This year I have the honor and privilege to join the East Coast Relay Team with Carry the Load. Starting in West Point NY and ending back here in my home base of Dallas TX. I am incredibly thankful for this opportunity. I am looking forward to hitting the road for the whole month of May walking across this great nation, that so many have fought and died for. We will be meeting thousands of patriotic Americans along our route who will join us in honoring those who gave the ultimate sacrifice.
Together we can honor and celebrate the sacrifices made by our nation’s heroes, military, veterans, first responders and their families. Remember, honor, and celebrate our nation's heroes by participating in the Dallas event, joining us along the route, and raising funds to support organizations which help heroes and their families.
Please help me and the East Coast Relay team reach our goal this year by donating through the provided link to help continue Carry the Load’s mission. I would personally like to thank you in advance for your support and commitment to our nation’s veterans.
