Strikes For Kids is a 501(c)(3) national charitable organization. Since their inception in 2012, they have organized over 100 bowling, softball and golf events. Strikes For Kids partners with more than 125 NFL, NBA, MLB and MMA athletes to allow fans and their families the rare opportunity to mingle with professional athletes for an enjoyable afternoon/evening of fun while supporting a worthy cause at an affordable cost. Strikes For Kids also provides local businesses a unique opportunity to create a team building exercise while seeing their tax deductible donation impact lives.
The mission of their organization is to coordinate these events nationally that empower and inspire the youth to achieve their goals and motivate them to become the leaders of tomorrow. They enrich the lives of students and youth organizations in the community in which these events are held by partnering up with various organizations that reward the children for their hard work in the classroom, demonstrating great behavior and excelling in sports.

The Firefighters of Southern Nevada Burn Foundation consists of active fire department personnel providing support to victims of fires & catastrophic events. The Burn Survivor Initiative raises funds to help more children attend seasonal burn camps, receive counseling and attend school reintegration programs. The Burn Foundation also collects toys for the disadvantaged children throughout the valley, and have provided at least one toy to thousands of children in need during the holidays.
While fighting fires, firefighters witnessed many burn victims and their families suffer physically and emotionally after ultimately losing their homes and necessities. These firefighters from across the valley decided to do something to help. Each year, thousands of children receive traumatic burns throughout the USA. In Las Vegas alone, the scars caused by burns affect hundreds of our kids each year. These scars must be worn physically and emotionally for the remainder of their lives. The Burn Survivor Initiative raises funds to help more children attend seasonal burn camps, receive counseling, attend school reintegration programs and begin living their lives again.
When firefighters anywhere in the valley are faced with a burn victim or family in need of support, they contact a representative of the Firefighters of Southern Nevada Burn Foundation to assist.
Due to the firefighters’ success in helping others and raising funds, this coalition began to take it further in the community and began to collect toys during the month of December, for the disadvantaged children throughout the valley. The Firefighters of Southern Nevada Burn Foundation have provided at least one toy to thousands of children in need during the holidays. For over 16 years, they have held successful Toy Drives and given back to the children in our community.
In 2003 it became apparent that it was time for this coalition to become a formal charity. We became a 501c3 charitable organization and continue to provide support to those families in need throughout Southern Nevada today.
SunBuggy is proud to donate to this worthwhile cause! We are donating two packages worth over $500 with the hope that it will benefit the Firefighters of Southern Nevada Burn Foundation.
In 1998 two HH-60G Rescue helicopters experienced a tragic mid-air collision during a night training mission on the Nellis AFB, NV range complex. This catastrophic accident caused the deaths of 12 Airmen leaving 8 children behind. In the aftermath of this tragedy a fund was started at a local Las Vegas bank to accept donations for the children of these brave Airmen. Not long afterwards in 1999 another Nellis AFB Rescue Airman was killed in the line of duty while on deployment to Operation Southern Watch and another fund was started to assist his two young sons.
The founders of these two independent assistance funds soon realized that they could be more effective if they combined their efforts. In that process they also realized that there is a much greater need than those few children and decided to pool their resources and expand their efforts to provide for the children of any Air Force Rescue Airmen who was killed executing the Air Force Rescue mission from the Kobar Towers terrorist attack in 1996 and forward. In May 2002 That Others May Live Foundation was officially founded and has continued to support the families of USAF Rescue Heroes since.
Over time the number of beneficiary children has grown from the original 8 to a current roll over 30 known children in need of post-secondary educational funding. Following the tragic shoot down of an HH-60G in Afghanistan in June 2010 TOML-F decided to expand its mission again and provide immediate tragedy assistance for the families of USAF Rescue Airmen who are killed or severely injured in combat. As of November 2014, That Others May Live Foundation has provided college assistance for ten children, provided immediate tragedy assistance funds for twenty three families of killed or injured Airmen and continues holding Warfighter appreciation events at Air Force bases with Rescue personnel.
That Others May Live Foundation mission is to assist with providing a college education for every child who has lost a parent during an operational or training Air Force Rescue mission as well as provide immediate tragedy assistance and Warfighter appreciation events.

After Dr. Donald and Lois Verleur provided a home for four teenage girls, they became inspired by the olive tree in the front yard, and the idea of a family crest. Olive Crest, a name symbolizing “peaceful family,” was born.
Today, more than 40 years later, Olive Crest has grown to become a leader in the prevention and treatment of child abuse, serving nearly 3,000 children and families each day throughout California, Nevada, and the Pacific Northwest.
Though four decades have passed, the Verleurs’ original commitment to the individual needs of at-risk youth continues to fuel Olive Crest’s mission to make a difference “One Life at a Time.”®
