Some Highlights from our 2020 “Salute the Protectors” Fundraiser. We spoke with Cumberland Country District Attorney Jonathan Sahrbeck, Cory Kelley of Empire Roofing- Veteran who received services from Veterans Count,    Lynn White from Vet2Vet Maine,  Gretchen Evans , who  is a disabled vet who participated in the World’s Toughest Race and so much more!

We’ve partnered with Bill Dodge GMC and Veterans Count—the organization that provides Maine vets with employment counseling, emergency financial assistance, mental health and deployment services, and much more, to bring you.

SALUTE THE PROTECTORS, a fundraiser to support veterans in need.

When you donate $50 or more, you’ll receive a hand-sewn camo face mask, made from a soldier’s uniform that has seen active duty- each one made right here in Maine!  The same material worn to protect our freedom… now worn by you to protect the people around you.
