Benefiting Organizations
The DoGood-er Awards will recognize individuals who support our community, but the event itself will help to support local non-profit organizations. For the upcoming event, we have chosen two worthwhile organizations, that are serving the youth in our community in multiple capacities. One is helping with support for kids dealing with grief. One is providing mentorship, life skills and more for underserved youth.
These two organizations were selected based on the choices of our 2024 DoGood-er Winners and the committee chose from there.
The 2025 beneficiaries are:
Andrea’s House
Saving Lives One Mother at a Time
Andrea's House, a transitional living program designed to support women and their children recovering from substance use disorders and trauma. Our mission is to provide a safe and nurturing environment that encourages personal growth, empowers our clients to achieve long-term sobriety, and helps them heal from the trauma that often accompanies addiction.
At Andrea's House, we understand that addiction is often rooted in trauma, and we offer specialized support to
help our clients heal from those underlying wounds. We work closely with local community agencies to provide our clients with all the necessary resources they need to become effective mothers and achieve their goals. Our comprehensive program includes case management, individualized treatment plans, meditation, mindfulness,
and parenting.
Veterans Honor Corp. dba Pulling For Veterans
Pulling for Veterans is dedicated to educating the public regarding Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). PTSD impacts so many of our brave veterans while “Secondary PTSD” affects their families and caregivers.
Trailers may be rented to serve as rolling billboards designed to educate the public about PTSD – a leading factor contributing to the 22 veteran suicides that occur every day.
Secondary PTSD (caregivers) may affect anyone who cares for a veteran suffering from PTSD. Spouses, family members and friends all need education and support from one another in order to help themselves and to provide the best care possible for a loved one suffering from PTSD. Our country has asked these brave veterans, many of whom were volunteers, to do incredible and unsettling things for us so we may live our lives in FREEDOM.
Pulling for Veterans also offers a unique opportunity not only to provide assistance to deserving veterans but for families that have lost a veteran to PTSD to be memorialized on a PTSD trailer with his or her name, photo, and bio link as a rolling memorial.
100% of proceeds support PTSD awareness and help prevent veteran suicide.
