Tuesday, 21 August 2012

Houston-based PTSD Foundation of America announced today that it has been selected as one of 100 nonprofit winners in Toyota's 100 Cars for Good program. 100 Cars for Good is a major philanthropic initiative in which the automaker is giving 100 cars to 100 nonprofits over the course of 100 days. The PTSD Foundation of America was selected as a winner based on votes from the public on August 10, 2012 on the 100 Cars for Good Facebook page at www.100carsforgood.com.

The PTSD Foundation of America has developed a caring and positive interim housing program for veterans with post-traumatic stress called Camp Hope. Camp Hope opened in May of 2012 with the initial capacity of 8 residential veteran units with its family unit breaking ground this fall. Camp Hope is located in a quiet and safe setting whereby veterans and their immediate family members can find healing, help and hope while benefiting from intensive treatment for Post Traumatic Stress.

"Everyone at The PTSD Foundation of America is thrilled to have been selected as a winner for the 2012 100 Cars for Good program," said Gene Birdwell, Founder of The PTSD Foundation of America. "We're grateful for this incredible opportunity to showcase what we do for our veterans, and this car will be an enormous help to increase our impact in Houston and around the nation."
