Light Up To Live Foundation Board Member Randall Reed announces dates for three important fundraising events benefitting Veterans recovering from Post-Traumatic Stress, Traumatic Brain Injury, pain and depression. Funds raised pay for innovative polychromatic light therapy systems used in physical therapy to increase blood circulation and reduce pain. Additionally, funds will pay for a uniquely trained service dog to support a Veteran living with PTS, TBI or adaptive needs.
“I could not be more proud of where this Foundation is going and how it is helping our military members thrive in spite of PTS, TBI or other adaptive issues, including limb loss and residual pain. I’m a firm believer in the benefits of polychromatic light therapy. And, I have personally seen the miraculous transitions that Veterans make when they have a skilled service dog by their side. It’s right to fund these two initiatives,” says Mr. Reed, whose family has military ties. “I appreciate the support we are getting from our friends in the automotive community – my personal sphere of influence.” Mr. Reed is the founder of the Texas-based World Class Automotive Organization (WCAO) with stores in the Dallas and Houston areas.
The Golf Tournament sells out early with players who will gather this year at Stonebriar Golf Club in Frisco. The popular golf course is recognized for its hospitality and golf course conditions. Long Drivers of America will be on hand with Brian Pavlet to help players on the most difficult par 5 hole. Breakfast, lunch, awards and special recognition of supporters top off the day of golf and fun in support of our Veteran community. The day is hosted by Randall and Sherry Reed and his partners at WCAO. Click HERE to register.
