Established in 2006 and they have raised over $75,000 for disabled vets in the area as well as many other charities like salvation army, toys for tots, second harvest food bank, biker for boobs (breast cancer) and many many more. They also donate their time to people who need help, by doing manual labor, like one time I saw them help a Vet move because he couldn't afford the help.
