VINO FOR VETS
OCTOBER 3 - 6, 2024
NAPA VALLEY, CALIFORNIA
Join Graham and Courtney Rahal for a couples-exclusive wine experience in the beautiful Napa Valley to raise money for Turns For Troops / SoldierStrong. Throughout the event, we will be visiting various locations such as Napa, Calistoga, Yountville and Oakville, and tasting some of the finest wines to be made.
Since we will be visiting the area in October, many of the wineries will be in harvest!
Net proceeds of the event will benefit Turns For Troops / SoldierStrong. Turns For Troops works alongside SolderStrong, an organization with a national profile that stands at the forefront of nonprofits dedicated to improving the lives of our nation's heroes through the donation of revolutionary medical technologies to VA Hospitals and other medical centers across the country. SoldierStrong provides rehabilitation devices known as exo-skeleton suits to aid injured and paralyzed veterans in regaining their ability to stand and walk again. To date the organization has donated 24 exo-skeleton suits, with 20 of those devices going to VA Hospitals. Currently, 35,000 veterans have access to the rehabilitation devices. Recently the organization has placed emphasis on mental health through their StrongMind program, which provides virtual reality hardware and software used in the treatment of post-traumatic stress (PTS) in veterans. 14 VA Hospitals across the country have access to the StrongMind technology.
