66ForThe22.org, Raising Awareness for Veteran Suicide
Donation protected
Ride to spread awareness...
We are a ride, geared at raising donations and awareness for veteran suicide and mental health.
The number 22, at one time, represented the number of veterans who have taken their lives daily and although that number has dropped to 16.5 each day, 22 is synonymous with and has become a symbol for veteran suicide.
1 is too many…
66 For The 22 was created as a cross-country ride, to raise awareness for veteran suicide and is a ride that stretches along what is probably the most famous road in the world. Historic Route 66 spans over 2,400 miles and crosses 8 states, starting in Chicago, Illinois and terminating at the Pacific Coast in Santa Monica, California.
The riders, all who have lost brothers or sisters, to veteran suicide, ride across the country and raise awareness and donations to support veterans' mental health and programs that will help veterans cope with PTSD and other issues, resulting from their experiences in combat.
Your donation helps support our organization's mission to make a positive impact in the veteran community. We appreciate your generosity, efforts, and support!
