Sponsor Our Gala
On behalf of Salute the Troops, we would like to invite your organization to participate as a sponsor for our 5th Annual Veterans Gala, “Welcome Home; A Fifty-Year Salute.” During this event, we pay tribute to Vietnam veterans.
This event is the major fundraising opportunity for our organization’s expansion; serving veterans, service-members, and their families in Mideastern Wisconsin. It is through your generous support we are able to reach out to the 46,741 veterans, 12.5% of the veteran population, in the State of Wisconsin. There are more service-members and family members, as well.
​
Some sobering statistics: Of the nearly 3 million Americans who served in Vietnam, less than 850,000 are estimated to be alive today; Fond du Lac county alone has been home to 6,250 Vietnam Era Veterans; and Nationwide, 390 Vietnam Era Veterans die every day.
Salute the Troops Inc., focuses its’ energy on empowering veterans, service-members, and their families via the following areas:
Fostering Camaraderie
Financial Assistance
Educating the Public
Creating Awareness
