The Ghost Rider Foundation
Posted by Plato in Events, Fund Raiser on April 12, 2008
The Ghost Rider Foundation is having its kick-off event on May 10th!
Here is a link to the flyer! Print it out, pass it out – get the word out there. We will be getting copies made and get them to people to pass out as well but until then feel free to get the word out there on your own!
The Foundation was formed to address two major concerns:
1. To counter the negative perceptions about Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) fostered and promoted by the media.
2. To be a source for veterans and their families for financial aid, counseling and to be a resource for information on the treatments and facilities available to assist in recovery.
The Ghost Rider Foundation was formed in the aftermath of a January 6th suicide by a 3 tour OIF Marine Veteran. His family and friends are doing all they can so this may never happen again. The Ghost Rider Foundation is registered in Ohio as a non-profit corporation. The Foundation also has also applied for a Federal Employee Identification Number (EIN) as well as a IRS 501c3.
