As a 501(c)(3) Non Profit Organization the THMF has been established to fundraise for the Wounded Warrior Project.
With proper funding and support the Tom Hale Memorial Foundation, INC will succeed as a regular provider of assistance to the Wounded Warrior Project through fundraising events and monthly donations.
Tom Hale was one of the biggest KISS fans I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. As one of the planners of the August 5, 2006
KISS ARMY PROTEST at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Tom gained several friends through social media on both My Space and Facebook. Those fortunate to have personally met him were blessed with a great time full of laughs and stories well worth sharing.
*Note: By searching the internet for
"KISS ARMY protest" you will discover several postings from news reports concerning the 2006 gathering. Also search "Thou Shalt Not Delay The Induction Of KISS". (The slogan I wr0te on the sign I carried at the event). Immediately after Tom's passing I began the process of bringing this organization to life. A way of honoring the memory of a man I am glad to have known. As a non-profit organization the Tom Hale Memorial Foundation, INC (THMF) will be a supporter of the Wounded Warrior Project (WWP) by making monthly donations to their cause to honor Gary Thomas Hale. Tom served our country as a 3rd armored division army ranger. Funds collected through this organization will assist in making the monthly installments as well as fund any events planned as fundraisers for the WWP. Ira Bostian
