NY Patriot Guard Riders and associates

As we gather with our families and give and receive gifts, let us remember our Warriors who have given their all, their families who have given their loved one and those who have returned disabled and will never be the same.  Let us not forget those in foreign places serving now, many in harms way and will not be with their families for Christmas. Our past Veterans and their families who have given some and our Heroes who gave all. The gift of freedom has never been free.

Our Help On The Homefront (HOTH) program has assisted 5 families this week with food and presents for the children and repairs to the home of a Wounded Warrior. Our program serves the families of our Fallen, Wounded and Veterans year round with the funds donated and raised through our fundraisers. This program is overseen by our 9 members of the NY BOD.

To all our members who ride and stand the flag line,  our Captains who selflessly organize each mission, our web team and those who visit the VA hospital , work our Veteran Recovery Program and HOTH fundraisers etc..... please know your gifts are invaluable to those we serve. The tears of gratitude, hugs and letters of thanks are evidence of the impact you have on each family.

I am honored to serve with each one of you.

Thank you all and Merry Christmas!
