American Spartans

THE MISSION OF AMERICAN SPARTAN INC IS TO PROVIDE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE TO COMBAT WOUNDED VETERANS, IN ORDER TO HELP THEM TRANSITION BACK INTO THE CIVILIAN WORLD.

As a US Navy veteran and an incredibly lucky to be American citizen, I am grateful to these men and women who put themselves in harm's way. That's why I am so happy to be helping with their first major fund-raiser.

Six marines have volunteered to hike 420 miles in keeping with the foundation's motto of "physically inspiring challenges" and on March 5th will be arriving at Park Semper Fi, finishing their journey.



The following poem was written specifically for this event and will be available at the fund-raiser.


You can learn more about this worthwhile cause here.
If you would like to donate, please see their website.

I would like to thank Elizabeth Giles of Maximum Capacity Events
for contacting me about this event.

And though I am Navy through and through, in the spirit of the event, "Semper Fi"
