Wounded Warriors Family Support Donates 2023 Ford Explorer to Hopi Veterans Services

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M., Dec. 22, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Wounded Warriors Family Support made it easier for Native American veterans to reach their health care destination Wednesday.

Hopi Veterans Services, an organization dedicated to serve Hopi/Tewa veterans that is based in Kykotsmovi, Arizona, received a 2023 Ford Explorer from the Omaha organization.

“A big challenge faced by Native American veterans is access to health care,” Wounded Warriors Family Support CEO and President Kate McCauley said. “With the closest VA facility located more than two hours away, many veterans struggle to receive proper care. However, thanks to the efforts of Hopi Veterans Services, over 500 veterans have been transported to their VA appointments since 2016.”

The vehicle, which is worth nearly $40,000, was presented at Rich Ford in Albuquerque.

“We have enjoyed the opportunity to assist Wounded Warriors Family Support programs on multiple occasions,” Rich Ford Fleet Sales Manager John Costen said. “It is gratifying to know that the vehicle will be used to aid our veterans to who we owe our respect and care.”

Hopi Veterans Services’ goal is to provide quality services in health care, benefits and customer satisfaction for Hopi/Tewa enrolled veterans and military members, widow/spouse and family members who reside on the Hopi Reservation.
