Something I've been working on since May. Proud to be heading up the team we have put together.............
porchlightpr.com/hvaf-event
Hello everyone! Want to share with you an event that is planned to occur annually with different benefactors and IndyCar teams participating each year. For 2013, The Pit Crew, a group from the IndyCar fan community, in conjunction with Hoosier Veterans Assistance Foundation (HVAF), Panther Racing, Novo Nordisk Ganassi Racing, Charlie Kimball, Porch Light PR and Community Reinvestment Foundation are proud to announce the HVAF Jackson House renovation. Jackson House is one of 12 properties owned and maintained by HVAF for our veterans.
HVAF of Indiana, Inc. short for Hoosier Veterans Assistance Foundation, is a United Way nonprofit organization, providing supportive housing and basic needs to veterans and families. Their mission is to eliminate homelessness among veterans and their families through education, prevention, supportive services and advocacy. In 2012, Central Indiana veterans received food, clothing, shelter and personal hygiene items with the help of HVAF. Additionally, 1,205 family members including 554 children received the counseling and guidance they needed as a result of HVAF’s efforts.
As a lead up to our project there is a donation drive for canned/dry foods and men's hygiene products. Collection locations are listed below. Nov 8-9 will see Panther Racing (Nov 8) and Novo Nordisk Ganassi Racing (Nov 9) crew members giving their time to install wood laminate flooring, give the walls fresh paint and remodel common areas. The two day project will be styled like the hit TV home makeover show. There are many surprises planned for the 6 veterans currently residing at Jackson House that we can't share yet, but we will have video and photographs for you. Please like us at www.facebook.com/theindypitcrew or follow us @theindypitcrew on Twitter. Press releases will be located at PorchLightPR.com. Here is a list of locations where you can contribute:
To kickoff the ongoing task of fighting homelessness among veterans, HVAF encourages the community to stop by and donate canned goods and hygiene products for the veterans served by HVAF.
