ColoradoPGA @ColoradoPGA Colorado PGA REACH Foundation MWSF Partnership The 2016 Colorado PGA REACH Invitational presented by UniGolf and PGA REACH ended in tremendous fashion on June 27, 2016 when the Colorado PGA REACH Foundation awarded a mortgage- free home to Retired US Army Sergeant Adam Cassidy and his family. The home was given away in conjunction with the Military Warriors Support Foundation and their Homes 4 Wounded Heroes program. The homes donated through this program are for families who have severe and/or unique circumstances due to their injuries received while serving our country. In addition to the home, the families will receive 3 years of family and financial mentoring. Over the last five years, the Military Warrior Support Foundation has awarded more than 700 mortgage-free homes to combat-wounded veterans and surviving spouses. The donation of the home was made possible by UniGolf, Bob Longmire and his wife Millie. About the Military Warriors Support Foundation

Military Warriors Support Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit charity, founded by LTG. Leroy Sisco, (Ret), in 2007. Our Mission is to provide support for our nation’s combat wounded heroes and Gold Star Families as they transition out of the military and into their new civilian life. This is a very fragile time for these heroes, and their families, and it is our goal to provide programs that facilitate a smooth and successful transition. Our programs include home donation, academic and employment assistance, as well as recreational activities. Through Homes4WoundedHeroes, our homes donation program, we award 100% mortgage-free homes to combat wounded veterans. This program is also available to Gold Star Spouses of Heroes who have fallen in combat. In addition to the home, each family receives three years of family and financial mentoring so that they may learn the skills necessary to become happy and successful homeowners. This program not only changes the lives of the hero and their family, but it also changes the lives of the generations that follow. We also proudly provide support to ALL veterans by offering them employment assistance. Through our CEOs4Heroes program, we have developed partnerships with several top-named companies who are committed to giving veterans good-paying, career-oriented, jobs. For family and recreational activities, we offer our Skills4Life program. Through this program, we offer family getaways, golf outings, hunting and fishing trips for 100’s of heroes and their families each year.
