The Boot Campaign

I want to keep reminding people about where their generous donation are going. The nonprofit that will be receiving the donations from my Op is the Boot Campaign.

The Boot Campaign is an organization that supports veterans and their families as well as partners with other veterans organizations to provide support in housing, job assistance, veteran wellness, urgent assistance, and family support.

Read more about the Boot Campaign on their website: http://www.bootcampaign.com/about/

My fundraising goal is $4,180 (RAGBRAI is 418 miles this year). The Boot Campaign has some pretty impressive celebrity supporters and I know my 'Op' is very small compared to the national events and attention they can gain. However, I feel my fundraising goal will be going to something good and I hope at the very least I can raise awareness and show veterans that they have people that care!

I hope you can support the cause by donating. If you aren't able to donate, consider sharing this blog with others.

Thanks for the support!

Lacey
