We are an Association of Combat Veterans from all branches of the United States Armed Forces who ride motorcycles as a hobby.
Our membership is comprised of Full Members (those with verified combat service), Auxiliary Members (a spouse, widow or widower of a full member) and Supporter Members (those who have non-combat military service, and have a sincere dedication to helping veterans). We have members from nearly all 50 states and living abroad. Many members continue to serve in our Armed Forces, with several serving in combat areas now.
We sponsor and/or participate in many motorcycle-related charity events each year, and as a non-profit organization, donate to various veteran care facilities and veteran charities.
We are a 501(c)(3) Tax Exempt, non-profit organization which means that your donations are tax deductible.
Examples demonstrating our commitment to veterans in need are:
We promote patriotism, honor and selfless service.
We provide some basic necessities for homeless veterans.
We donate food baskets for active duty service member families in need.
We work with veterans facilities to assist veterans who need help.
We provide meals for hungry veterans.
We help connect veterans with potential employers for job opportunities.
We support memorial services to honor fallen veterans.
We raise funds to assist veterans with overwhelming medical bills.
We provide short term rent assistance to needy veteran families.
We promote motorcycle safety and much, much more!
The emblem and logo of the Combat Veterans Motorcycle Association are in the shape of a skull surrounded by the following colors:
Red Representing the blood that has been shed on the battlefield.
Military Gold: Represents all branches of the military service of the United States.
Black:Representing the heavy hearts possessed for those who gave their lives and for those that are considered missing in action or prisoners of war.
We ARE NOT a Motorcycle Club or Motorcycle Gang.
We DO NOT have colors.
We DO NOT prospect, nor do we actively recruit.
We DO NOT claim territory.
We ARE NOT, nor do we claim to be a motorcycle club.
Our mission now is to support and defend those who have defended our
country and our freedoms. Our focus is to help veteran care facilities
provide a warm meal, clothing, shelter and guidance, or simply to say
"Thank You For Your Service." and "Welcome Home."
If you are a combat veteran of the US Armed Forces, we would like to extend our hand and say a sincere and heartfelt "Welcome Home!"
In order to join our chapter, applicants can request an application via our Contack officers link below.
