Miles for Heroes - Riding in Honor Remembering with Purpose
Never Forget Our Veterans

Esteemed Colleagues and Friends,

On Sunday, June 14th, I’ll embark on a 650-mile, 6-day mission across the Empire State Trail in New York State
to raise funds for VEO and honor my recently deceased ex-military father.

There are thousands of unhoused and near-homeless Georgia military veterans, and Veterans Empowerment Organization helps our heroes get back on their feet and live productive lives through support services for housing, mental health, and vocational training.

The VEO Cycling Team proudly recognizes and honors our veterans.  Team members Ken Wood and Brad Meyer currently serve on the VEO Board of Directors, and Ken is the current Board Chair of this great organization.

My father lived his final years in my sister’s loving and supportive home, and VEO works to give veterans the same dignity.

Please consider donating to the cause. The donations given via this link go directly to the organization.

Sincerely,
J. Michael Roach

"The VEO Cycling Team is more than just a group of riders—it’s a movement dedicated to empowering veterans through cycling, community, and support. As part of the Veterans Empowerment Organization, our team participates in races and charity rides to raise awareness and funds for critical veteran services, including housing, mental health care, and workforce development."  Ken Wood

From June 14–20, Dr. Michael Roach, a member of the VEO Cycling Team, will complete a solo 650-mile ride across New York State in memory of his beloved father, a veteran who benefited from the love and support of a devoted family. By supporting Michael's ride, you help VEO extend that same spirit of care, support and sense of community to the veterans we serve every day.
