IT'S HAPPENING!

Are you ready to lace up your running shoes and make a meaningful difference for warriors young and old? Join us for our Infants and Infantry 5k, a collaborative effort between Maine Veterans Program and the VOGM Support Network!

Maine Veterans Project aims to provide community and support to end veterans’ suicide, and the VOGM Support Network supports families whose child is diagnosed with VOGM, a rare life threatening brain AVM. They provide emotional, logistical, and financial support to get VOGM children to a specialist for life saving treatment! 

With your help we can save lives!

A big thank you to Triumph Professional Cleaning Service for putting this together and hosting our event!
