$35K for Maine Veterans
Posted on by dmartignetti

The combined Make 12 Hours Count Radiothon and Hot Rods and Heroes fundraiser brought in $35,000 to support Veterans Forward and its work for Maine veterans. Organizers said the total topped last year’s effort, thanks to strong community support from donors, sponsors, vendors, food trucks, vehicle registrations, 50-50 raffle contributions, and Bill Dodge Auto Group.
