Henry Repeating Arms donates $50,000 to DAV

 

ERLANGER, Ky. – In honor of Henry Repeating Arms' silver anniversary celebration, the Wisconsin-based company is donating $50,000 to DAV (Disabled American Veterans), an organization dedicated to empowering veterans to lead high-quality lives with respect and dignity.

 

The donation is a portion of Henry Repeating Arms’ $1 million pledge made through the charitable branch of the company called Guns for Great Causes. The program supports a wide variety of organizations and nonprofits, including children’s hospitals, veterans’ organizations, law enforcement, and other first responder groups. The company selected DAV as a recipient to support veterans and their families.

 

“DAV’s mission is critical to the prosperity of our country’s veterans, and they have my unwavering support,” said Henry Repeating Arms CEO and Founder Anthony Imperato. “Our veterans are owed a debt that we can never repay, which is why Henry Repeating Arms will always find ways to help the cause.”

 

"DAV is honored to receive this generous gift from such an exceptional organization," said DAV National Adjutant and CEO Marc Burgess. "We are grateful to have been selected for this donation, and we look forward to our partnership ahead."
