Our commitment to the community extends to providing support and resources to local neighborhoods. We actively engage in community projects and initiatives that aim to foster a sense of solidarity and service.
Wheelchairs
4 Kids
Marines embody the motto of being "Always Faithful" to God, Country, and Corps. We stand ready to assist wherever there is a need. For numerous families, acquiring a new wheelchair is beyond their financial means. With your generous support, contributions, and involvement in the Annual Cpl. Les Stevenson Memorial MCL Golf Tournament, we can provide wheelchairs to underprivileged children in our community.
Wheelchairs 4 Kids is a nonprofit organization committed to enhancing the lives of children with physical disabilities. They offer wheelchairs, modifications for homes and vehicles, and other assistive devices at no cost to families through our Let's Roll Program.
School Supply Drive
Our School Supply Drive is a charitable event designed to unite the community through entertainment, engaging games, a 50/50 raffle, various raffle prizes, and delicious food. The proceeds from this event are dedicated to acquiring supplies for local students, with contributions from on-site vendors, individual sponsors, and veteran-owned businesses in the region.
This event continues to gain momentum each year, having supported hundreds of families in obtaining their school supplies for the academic year.
