Crawlin' For A Cure 2013

Crawling 2012

The annual Crawl for a Cure event takes place this Saturday in Eagle, Colorado.  We’ll be there live-tweeting the event if anyone is feeling bored on a Saturday night and wants to follow along on Twitter, you can check it out here: @Jeepwaves

This event focuses on raising money and awareness for Breast Cancer prevention.  We’ve got a special pink Jeep Wave Sticker available in VERY limited quantities.  2o% of the sales will be donated to the Susan G. Komen Foundation as well as the standard 10% donation to the Wounded Warriors Fund.  Availability and a way to purchase coming soon!

Memorial Day 2013

Reflect. Reflect. Reflect.

While this is a national day of remembrance in the USA, it’s also an intensely personal day to reflect on what the ultimate sacrifice of others means to you — how it affects your life to know that fellow Americans have died fighting to protect the freedoms we take for granted.  More than one day a year to do this, it should be something we think about daily and appreciate, but often, we forget. We implore all our readers to thank a military veteran today for taking the risks to defend what we hold dear and pay respects to those who fought and did not return.  We also recommend a donation to the Wounded Warriors Project as a way to support those fighting today.

As is tradition here at jeepwaves.com, here is a salute from a superhero to the real superheros…

Remembering – Memorial Day

A Jeep Wave to remember those who died while serving to protect the USA.  We hope this day is less about the bbq’s, the beach, and the day off of work and more about remembering and reflecting about how and why we are able to enjoy what we have in this country.  In large part, due to those who made the ultimate sacrifice.

We posted last week about a new initiative going on at jeepwaves.com.  We are donating 10% of all purchases made to the Wounded Warriors Fund.  We believe this is a great cause and something all of us can get behind.  While a day like Memorial Day is well needed, supporting wounded vets is something we can do everyday, not just the last day in May.  Don’t make this a reason to buy a decal or a shirt today, because that’s not what today is about.  But, hopefully this philanthropy is something we can take pride in when making future purchases.

One last thing.  A tribute from last year from a super hero to the real super heroes.
