Stan Kaufman, San Tan Rotary Foundation, Inc., presented proceeds of Rotary’s “Hooked on Healing” veterans motorcycle ride to representatives of Arizona Stand Down Alliance, Fans Across America and Project Healing Waters Fly Fishing. The San Tan Crown Rotary Club of Chandler, Arizona, sponsors an annual motorcycle fundraiser on the last Saturday of every February. The ride volunteers and the Rotary Club and Foundation are dedicated to helping veterans in need right here in the Valley. Their numbers and their needs are ever increasing, giving the Rotary members and their volunteers lots to do in preparing for each annual ride … And a whole bunch to celebrate when they get to pay out 100% of the ride proceeds to these selfless organizations! Corporate sponsors now pay for all ride expenses so the Foundation can pay out 100% of the ride revenue. Our event is growing every year, and we are always looking for additional volunteers to help out for a few hours on the day of the ride. If you are interested in volunteering or finding out more about the event, please call Stan Kaufman at 701-238-2310.
