As we close in on the halfway point in 2020, I can’t imagine anybody would’ve predicted the type of year it’s been. We’ve seen a pandemic reek havoc on this nation in many ways. Wholesale closure of just about every business in the country. Some will never reopen. Imagine putting your life savings into a dream to open a business only to have it closed because of a situation totally out of your control, losing everything you’ve worked for.
Then, we have riots to protest inequality. Our constitution says “All men are created EQUAL”. the Bible tells us to love one another as ourselves. A bad situation in Minnesota echos throughout the country. Protests turn to full scale riots. entire blocks are burned to the ground. More dreams go up in flames. Communities call for “defunding” of law enforcement. In the blink of an eye, we went from thanking our first responders and hospitals workers for stepping up during this pandemic, to wanting to close every law enforcement agency you can imagine.
Since the civil unrest began, over 700 law enforcement officers have been injured. As of today, eight officers have been killed. To us here at GotUr6, their lives mattered. We try to help the families of these officers the best we can. We are still a young organization. We do our best to raise money to help the families of our Military and first responders who have been killed or critically injured in the line of duty. At the rate we are going, we are going to have to step it up to help those that truly need whatever help we can give.
For the next 30 days, if you buy one of our GotUr6 t-shirts or challenge coins, we will include one our our 4x6 stickers. just let us know if you would like to have our military or Law Enforcement pinup. Every dime we raise, goes back out to help these families.
If you’re a family member of a 1st responder who has been injured in the line of duty, please fill out the contact form.
Thank you for taking the time to learn more about GotUr6. We hope that we are a foundation you can support. Thank you for your time and consideration.
