The ES Riders is a nonprofit program part of The Life Beyond Foundation, Inc. We provide individuals, at no cost to them, “A Ride to Freedom.” This ride to freedom is shown through the electric scooters that we provide our riders with. Those living with disabilities or are veterans are the riders we mainly support. With that being said, May is an important month for all of us. May is Military Appreciation Month!
Military Appreciation Month takes place every year throughout the entire month of May. The entire month is designated to honoring past and present military members and their families. Some other military holidays throughout May include Loyalty Day, VE Day, Military Spouse Appreciation Day, Mother’s Day, Armed Forces Day, and Memorial Day! What a great month filled with so much appreciation. Military Appreciation Month reminds Americans to celebrate by paying tribute to those who have sacrificed so much for our own freedom. Let’s learn a little more about each military holiday.
