The National Insurance Restoration Council Sponsors Veterans Village Charity Run at Annual Conference
Las Vegas, NV (PRWEB) April 21, 2016 -- The National Insurance Restoration Council (NIRC) sponsored the Veterans Village Charity Run during the annual Win the Storm conference. The Veterans Village Charity Run run took place in front of the Hard Rock Hotel on Sunday, March 5th, at 9am. National Insurance Restoration Council CEO Joe Radcliff presented on industry reform at the conference, and donated monies, products and services to the conference raffle to help raise funds for veterans. Veterans Village Las Vegas is a retrofitted motel that provides comprehensive housing, 24/7 crisis intervention, and support services 365 days a year to local veterans. The Charity Run raised over $7,000 to support the Veterans Village Las Vegas programs and their replicable “Instant Built House” model to help end veteran homelessness nationwide.
“We’re very proud to sponsor the Veterans Village Charity Run and to support this visionary nationwide initiative to end homelessness. Being in the insurance restoration industry, we help people, plain and simple. It’s very important to give back to individuals that put their life on the line everyday to protect our country,” says Joe Radcliff, CEO of the National Insurance Restoration Council.
Veterans Village founder, Arnold Stalk, PhD, recently launched a unique “Instant Built House” model prototype as a solution to end homelessness nationwide. The unit is constructed from a standardized, recycled ISO shipping container. The recycled housing units can be rapidly transported anywhere in the country, providing immediate occupancy and affordable housing solutions for homeless, displaced and disadvantaged veterans. Public and private collaborative partnerships, sponsorships and donations are crucial for continued supplies and services to local veteran residents.
