Leading Military-Focused E-Commerce Platform Supports FireFighterAid for September Fundraising Efforts
SAN DIEGO, Sept. 8, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- GovX, the online shopping site exclusive for active and former military and first responders, has donated a total of $19,323 to The Honor Foundation (THF) for the month of August. THF is a nonprofit dedicated to helping members of US Armed Forces special operations transition their talents and skills to the professional workforce after their military service commitments end.
GovX's monthly donation is part of the ongoing GovX Gives Back charitable initiative, raising funds for nonprofits serving the military and first responder community. This multi-pronged effort combined individual orders from the GovX catalog and a generous supplementary donation by BUBS Naturals, the supplement brand named after former Navy SEAL Glen "BUB" Doherty. GovX is a proud partner of BUBS, offering exclusive prices for members on GovX Marketplace for popular products like collagen, protein, and many other health supplements.
GovX's ongoing support for The Honor Foundation will continue into September with THF's ceremonial Swim for SOF event at Coronado Bay in San Diego. GovX is proudly sponsoring the charity swim and supporting the volunteer swimmers making the 3.3-mile swim from the Hotel Del Coronado beach to the USS Midway in honor of SOF servicemembers and veterans. To learn more about The Honor Foundation and upcoming charity swim, visit honor.org.
September is an important time for the GovX community of military and first responders. For this month's initiative, GovX Gives Back will support FirefighterAid. FirefighterAid is a nonprofit that offers charitable assistance to professionals of the firefighting community, including wildland, structural, full-time paid firefighters, and part-time volunteers. Partners of FirefighterAid since 2016, the GovX team will also support the nonprofit's annual San Diego 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb on Saturday, September 10th. To learn more about FirefighterAid, please visit firefighteraid.org.
"We are proud to once again give back to our friends at FirefighterAid and support their efforts to champion health and safety in the American fire and paramedics services," said GovX CEO and President Alan Cole. "As one of our oldest GovX Gives Back partners, it's a privilege to support FirefighterAid with another donation and also continue to call them friends."
Funds for the generous GovX Gives Back donations come from GovX's Patch of the Month proceeds, as well as GovX Gear sales. Certain to be a month of giving, the Southern California-based e-mobility brand and GovX partner, Aventon E-Bikes, will provide a supplemental donation to add to GovX's total donation at the end of the month of September.
