Ashley's TAPS fundraising progress
On October 8, 2017, I will be participating in the Army Ten Miler in support of the Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors (TAPS). TAPS provides direct support to families who have been impacted by a death in the military regardless of geography or circumstance.
The funds I raise will flow directly into TAPS programming which supports these families through an amazing network of resources. The TAPS program that impresses me the most, and that I believe really helps survivors, are the events: retreats, expeditions, and camps for kids, among others. (Learn more and see pictures at https://www.taps.org/programs/.) Bonding with other surviving family members while climbing Machu Picchu can be a turning point for a surviving spouse or child, and that is the reason I am excited about this fundraiser!
TAPS provides these services at no charge to survivors from all branches of the service, including Reserves and National Guard. TAPS’ programs and services are available not only for immediate family, but also for extended family and friends. Please help me honor our fallen heroes by supporting me in this effort. No donation is too big or too small.
Thank you!
