TAUNTON, Mass., /PRNewswire/ — Homes For Our Troops (HFOT), a national nonprofit that builds and donates specially adapted custom homes for severely injured post-9/11 Veterans, announces National HFOT Board Ambassador Jake Tapper’s new joint project with Dave Matthews to raise funds in support of HFOT’s mission. A longtime fan and friend of Dave Matthews Band, Jake designed a vintage-style t-shirt depicting the band as a superhero team named ‘DAVENGERS’. Jake Tapper launched the project on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. All net proceeds will benefit Homes For Our Troops’ mission of Building Homes and Rebuilding Lives.
“Dave Matthews Band and I are excited that the “DAVENGERS” t-shirt will raise funds for a worthy cause and help Homes For Our Troops further their mission supporting injured Veterans,” says Jake Tapper.
“Jake sent me his artwork and suggested the idea of using it to raise money for homes for injured Veterans. I suggested some changes to make me better looking. Aside from his very flattering depiction of us I am psyched we get to partner with him on this worthwhile project,” says Dave Matthews.
“Grateful doesn’t begin to cover how we feel about HFOT National Ambassador Jake Tapper’s continued support,” says HFOT President/CEO Brigadier General (USA, Ret) Tom Landwermeyer. “Proceeds from the vintage-style t-shirt Jake designed of Dave Matthews Band as superheroes – “DAVENGERS” – will help us further our mission of Building Homes and Rebuilding Lives for our nation’s severely injured Veterans.”
