SOS Veterans Military Gala
PALM SPRINGS, C.A. (October 16, 2008) – Soldiers Organized Services (SOS) is hosting a fund-raising gala on November 9, 2008 in the Palm Springs Air Museum to raise money for gasoline used by its fleet of volunteer drivers to give free transportation to service members from Palm Springs International Airport to the Twentynine Palms Marine Corps Base.
Live music and entertainment are planned as well as food and a “no-host bar.â€
Tickets are $75.00 per person and is payable by check or money order.
Soldiers Organized Services (SOS) was founded in 2007 when Erica Stone, founder and director, encountered a stranded and injured Iraq War veteran in Palm Springs International Airport and decided to give him free transportation back to his base. Since then, 4000 service members and their families have been transported by SOS and its fleet of volunteer drivers.
Erica Stone can be reached via email at e.stone@sosride.org or by telephone at (760) 799-5488. To learn more about Soldiers Organized Services, visit their website at sosride.org.
