Veterans Recovery Network (VRN) has announced plans to host a charity boxing and MMA event in Las Vegas to support disabled veterans impacted by the recent California wildfires.
The event will take place on February 14, 2025, at Sam’s Town Hotel and Gambling Hall Resort in Las Vegas.
It will feature boxing promoter Repo Ric and Floyd Mayweather Sr. as hosts.
Organized by Whoop Dat A$$ Entertainment and WDA Sports International, the event aims to provide relief for disabled veterans and their families who have been affected by the wildfires.
The private event is open to all veterans, military dependents, and supporters of the cause, as listed in the Sam’s Town Casino and Hotel private event calendar.
According to Veterans Recovery Network, the California wildfires have displaced hundreds of disabled veterans and left them in need of housing, medical assistance, and essential resources.
VRN is addressing this issue by launching GoFundMe campaigns to raise financial aid.
Donations will be used for temporary housing, medical expenses, and other vital needs for affected veterans.
The campaigns utilize Donor Advised Fund platforms, such as DAFpay, to streamline contributions.
A spokesperson for VRN said the organization is committed to supporting those who have served the country, adding: “We are calling on the community to come together and support these brave men and women who have sacrificed so much for our country.”
In addition to traditional fundraising methods, VRN is leveraging modern platforms and government-supported programs.
The organization recently participated in discussions regarding veterans’ services at SNP Veterans Medical Centers & Health Systems and The Henry Nanpei Academy Project.
VRN’s efforts include a transition to private Donor Advised Fund platforms like Chariot.
These platforms aim to maximize contributions while ensuring accountability and efficiency in delivering aid to veterans in need.
As a registered 501(c)(3) and 509(a)(3) nonprofit organization, VRN dedicates its efforts to supporting veterans and other charitable causes, particularly those affected by the California wildfires.
The charity boxing and MMA event not only raises funds but also brings the community together to support veterans.
It is a part of VRN’s broader mission to ensure disabled veterans have access to the resources they need to recover from recent challenges.
The organization encourages individuals to contribute through their GoFundMe campaigns or reach out directly to offer support.
Details about the event and VRN’s programs can be found on their official website at vetsrecovery.org.
