Kia Motors America Supports Run For The Wall Cross-country Motorcycle Ride Honoring Veterans

"Kia is grateful to the brave men and women who have elected to serve our country, and the Run For The Wall is an annual event that honors their sacrifice," said Tim Chaney, vice president of marketing communications, KMA. "By supplying Kia Sedona minivans as support vehicles on all three routes and financial support for the ride, we hope to further the organization's mission of healing."
During the 10-day journey, riders will visit veterans' hospitals, schools and memorials. Communities will come together to greet the riders with hot meals and logistical support. Kia's 2015 Sedonas will carry needed supplies, wreaths for the Memorials as well as items given by communities and schoolchildren to be left at The Wall.
"Kia's support of Run For The Wall is instrumental in helping our riders make what, for many, is an emotional trek across the country," said Ken Hargrove, President, Run For The Wall. "We are grateful that companies such as Kia have joined us for the journey."
