STATEN ISLAND, N.Y., Feb. 28, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Chelsea Financial Services Representative Mike Jump is the lead organizer for V.F.W. Post 1486's Annual Fundraiser "The Wheel for Warriors" in Sandwich, Illinois. In a show of support for Jump and his fundraising efforts for local Veterans of Foreign Wars, Chelsea Financial has become a sponsor for the event.
"I've been fundraising in the Sandwich area for many years," stated Jump. "For the previous 10 years, I was very involved with Somonauk Summer Recreation, a baseball/softball organization with 200+ kids. Last year, I figured it was time to help out our area Vets, since their Post's parking lot is full of potholes, and they didn't have the funds to make the necessary repairs. As you can imagine, wheelchairs, walkers and potholes just don't mix, so after hearing the community's complaints and concerns about the parking lot condition, I got involved." Jump became the top donor to get the fundraising started.
Jump had created a successful "Wheel-O-Meat" for his previous fundraising efforts, which he has permanently renamed "Wheel for Warriors" for his V.F.W. Post Annual Fundraising Campaign: "The 'Wheel-O-Meat' was really successful, even if it didn't sound great," joked Jump. "But for the Veterans, we've gone way beyond cuts of meat as the prizes. This year, we have really increased the number and values of the raffles, with multiple high-end TVs and other many other prizes from $25 - $500."
Chelsea Financial Services Company President, John Pisapia remarked: "Mike Jump has been a Financial Advisor for over 40 years. He joined Chelsea Financial back in 2016 and has been a longtime resident of the area (since 2002) and has always been actively dedicated to his community. I'm proud to be a Sponsor for this Annual Event and support his fundraising efforts to help Veterans in the area."
