“Polaris takes pride in being an American company built on the
values that shaped our nation, values that are protected and
exemplified by the brave men and women who have—or are
currently—serving our country. Together with Zac Brown Band and
Camp Southern Ground, we want to say, ‘thank you’ for their
service, sacrifice and commitment to our nation,” said Steven
Menneto, President of Polaris Off Road.
“Teaming up with Polaris to raise money to support veteran
programs at Camp Southern Ground is a privilege that I don’t take
for granted,” added Mike Dobbs, CEO of Camp Southern Ground. “Camp
Southern Ground’s veteran programs, Warrior Week and Warrior PATHH,
were developed to support the mental health and wellbeing of
transitioning veterans. Our goal with the Proud American Thank You
is to raise funds to continue to provide that programming at no
cost to veterans.”
Zac Brown Band is a frequent collaborator with Polaris and share
the same commitment to supporting our nation’s veterans. Brown
started Camp Southern Ground to serve children with diverse
backgrounds and abilities, and the project has grown to address the
needs of service members transitioning to civilian life after
active duty.
In addition to the Proud American Thank You fundraising concert,
Polaris will continue its Heroes Advantage Program, offering
discounts on vehicles to America's active military, veterans, first
responders, and medical professionals. Polaris works with other
programs like its Salute to Service initiative with the Wounded
Warriors Project. As a longtime partner of the United States
military and allies around the world, Polaris produces a versatile
lineup of utility, transport, and tactical off-road vehicles
through its Polaris Government & Defense business. With
hundreds of current and former services members part of the Polaris
team, including Chairman and CEO Scott Wine, Polaris believes in
supporting those who protect this nation’s freedoms, especially
after their service is completed.
