Wounded Iraq War Vets Ride For Free To Wounded Warrior
Event
Angel Flight West will fly 15
wounded warriors, and their significant others, to a five-day
reunion in Pagosa Springs Colorado beginning June 1. The event,
hosted by the Pagosa Springs Chamber of Commerce in partnership
with Wounded Warrior Project, brings together soldiers severely
injured in Iraq for activities such as horse-back riding, fishing,
spa days, fine dining and more.
"AFW is committed to supporting other non profits such as Wounded
Warrior Project," said Alan M. Dias, Executive Director of AFW. "We
are honored to assist these heroes and their families, and we
welcome the opportunity to partner with other non profits
contributing to similar missions." There will also be a special
recognition event held on June 1 for the service members of
WWP.
