Our Beneficiary
Net proceeds and donations throughout 2021 will be donated to Operation Renewed Hope Foundation (ORHF).
"Each year, ORHF helps over 100 Veterans and their families in the DC metro area who are experiencing homelessness. Every client is literally homeless (living in shelter, car, on the street) and we are working to clear the barriers to getting them into homes. We do this by paying for application fees and security deposits, covering transportation to look at apartments, and helping out with utility bills. We want our Veterans and their families to be at a place where they can rebuild their lives and where their children can have the stability they need before the school year begins. Together we can end Veteran homelessness in the DC metropolitan region". Learn More...
