Motorcycle Ride to Benefit Wounded Heroes Program of Maine

Got those bikes shined up and ready to roll? The United Vets Motorcycle Club will hold its 1st ever Wounded Heroes Program benefit ride on Sunday, July 20th.

Registration will be held at the American Legion on Bangor Road in Houlton beginning at 10 a.m. with kickstands up at 11 a.m. sharp.

The will be a spaghetti feed held at the Legion after the ride.

All proceeds raised will be donated to the Wounded Heroes Program.

Warrior Legacy Foundation’s Wounded Heroes Program of Maine is a registered 501(c)(3) non profit, all volunteer organization established to support our wounded veterans when they return home after being injured in the line of duty.

Once released from service due to injury, they no longer get paid. Waiting for their disability claim to be processed will take at least a year; the majority of the time, much longer. During this difficult time of transition, the expenses of daily life become overwhelming, as they are unable to work and need ongoing medical/mental health care.

Wounded Heroes Program provides a safety net by paying rent, utilities, cell phone, heating oil payments and more. Wounded Heroes also provides benefits guidance and advocacy so that our veterans do not have to navigate the systems on their own.
