Month: March 2015

The Teen Challenge is a 12-18 month residential recovery program that provides help to those struggling with drug and alcohol addiction. Teen Challenge has four homes in the Bay Area (California) dedicated to assisting men,women, children, teenagers and even entire families who are on the road to recovery! This program reaches out to those who would otherwise be living on the streets. Future generations are influenced positively as Teen Challenge makes an impact on the entire family.

Each year, the Teen Challenge hold a Benefit Golf Tournament & Silent Auction to help raise funds for the continuing needs of the program. When SunBuggy was reached out to for any possible donations to be made for the silent auction, we were 100% more than happy to get involved and help out in any way possible, so we donated one of our Custom Built Dune Buggies for a 2 hour rental at our Pismo Beach, CA location, for the Silent Auction. Sunbuggy will continue to help out as much we can for years to come!

This year, the fundraiser will be expecting over 100 attendees and will be looking for business within the community who would be willing to partner with them by contributing something towards the Silent Auction portion of the event. The kind generosity of ALL who get involved will go a very long way toward this fundraiser and will help keep their doors open to any individual in need!

The annual Santa Cruz High School Cardinal Club Calamari Dinner Fundraiser will be held on April 10th, 2015 at the Holy Cross Church Hall. In order to ensure the success of this very important fundraiser, the school has reached out to many local companies, including SunBuggy! Here at SunBuggy, we provided a two seat Buggy for two hours for the Silent Auction that will be held at this fundraiser.

The school is is seeking out donations for this fundraiser, which will end up being the key to success and will make it poassible for the Cardinal Club to provide SCHS Athletic Programs to continue to exist and further allow student athletes the opportunity to play sports.

Mission Statement

To bring the hearts and minds of our soldiers’ home through healing and play one soldier, one family, one community at a time.

The ‘Welcome Home Troops’ mission is to bring the hearts and minds of our soldiers’ home. It is our vision to do this in two parts:

1. Through play, ‘Welcome Home Troops’ introduce exciting and novel events into our soldiers lives as shared experiences with family and friends. With suicide and divorce being two of the biggest challenges facing our Service Members reintegration; the play that we provide is an integral part of returning the hearts and minds of our soldiers’ home. With events such as NHRA, NASCAR, professional sporting events and Academy of Country Music Awards; we are restoring to our Service Members their most highly emotional connections with their families in a community setting. Until our Service Members can enjoy the simple things of life it is almost impossible to heal from their traumatic experiences.

2. Through healing; once we have a hold of our soldiers’ hearts and they are present i.e. in the moment, we can bring them through their healing processes. The vision is to do this in the following ways. PTS recovery programs the VA Triage Program, and the Post 9-11 War Memorial.

PTS Recovery Program © is a process of integrated services including NLP with Emotional Release Therapy, Timeline Therapy, NeuroFeedback Therapy, with a proprietary study guide, consisting of group study and mentoring; as well as non-traditional health care which includes Chiropractic, Acupuncture, and Nutritional components.

VA TriageProgram © is a service that will help put our Veterans back to work while providing much needed support to our existing VA Programs. We will do this by redirecting our worthy warriors into community services using the existing job skills of our Veterans in a program that will provide assessments, placement and treatment. We will work in tandem with the VA and the EDD to find where the need is and how we can provide the best levels of support, through the coordinated efforts of community providers.

The Post 9-11 War Memorial©; a key component of healing for PTS is to be able to reconcile with loss. This Memorial allows family and friends of the fallen to Honor and pay their respect, in the most personal way. A key component of PTS is Moral Conflict; there is no greater level of moral conflict than the unresolved issues of lives lost in combat. The Memorial is a place to let the lost rest in peace and heal the hearts and minds of the living.
