In a heartwarming initiative to support wounded service members and veterans, DARCARS® Automotive Group and DARCARS® Toyota have teamed up for an impactful campaign titled "DARCARS® Heroes Home for the Holidays." This endeavor is focused on easing the financial pressures that wounded warriors, veterans, and first responders may face while traveling home to their families during the holiday season.
This holiday season marks a significant effort as DARCARS pledges to provide funding for 500 flights to assist in reunifying wounded service members with their loved ones. This collaboration with Luke's Wings, a recognized nonprofit organization dedicated to providing free flights for injured service members during their recovery, highlights the deep appreciation both companies hold for those who have bravely served their nation.
Luke's Wings has been making a tangible impact since its inception in 2008 by offering complimentary flights to military personnel and their families. They work tirelessly to alleviate the travel expenses that families incur during challenging times of recovery and rehabilitation. Through their partnership with DARCARS, the organization aims to respond to the needs of even more families this December.
Jamie Darvish from DARCARS expressed sincere gratitude towards our nation’s heroes, saying, "We recognize and deeply appreciate the sacrifices made by our military personnel and veterans. Our 'Heroes Home for the Holidays' campaign embodies our respect for those who have served, and we are proud to work alongside Luke's Wings to make a significant difference during this festive season."
Fletcher Gill, the Founder and CEO of Luke's Wings, also voiced his appreciation for DARCARS' generous commitment. Gill stated, "The partnership between DARCARS and Luke's Wings is invaluable. Their support allows us to ensure that no hero is alone during the holidays, providing them with the opportunity to connect with their friends and family without the burden of travel costs."
The campaign is not just about flights; it’s a message of love and support for those who have endured so much. DARCARS encourages service members and veterans who are interested in taking advantage of this offer to visit their site, or Luke’s Wings website for further details on eligibility and participation.
The campaign will run until December 31, 2024, with opportunities for community members to contribute further to Luke's Wings. DARCARS invites customers and the general public to consider making donations that would directly fund more flights and ensure that the organization's mission continues unabated.
