The Walsingham Group was honored on Dec. 12 for their outstanding commitment to supporting Veterans in the first ever Community Impact Awards hosted at Segra Stadium by Off Road Outreach, a local nonprofit dedicated to providing support for Veterans to meet all their needs. 

The group were the first recipients of the 2022 Veteran Community Partner of the Year award. 

The Walsingham Group has supported the efforts of Off Road Outreach by providing constant support in the form of equipment such as a trailer, sponsorships and by volunteering.  

“I love the Walsingham Group,” said Executive Director of Off-Road Outreach Stacey Buckner. “They have been really instrumental in keeping our program sustainable throughout the year. Ever since COVID, people are not as giving as they used to be, unfortunately, but the Walsingham group has been a consistent, sustainable donor to us and we're super appreciative of what they do. And yeah, they are our Veteran Service Partner of the Year.”
