In Winter or Spring, iSledders Warms the Heart
I know spring has sprung, and the snow is a faint memory (at least for the majority of us), but now is as good a time as any to applaud and share some great news from iWarriors, which held its second annual iSledders Charity Snowmobile Ride in February, raising $5,500.

Not only did the snow bring together some of the mold building community for a little snowmobiling, it also helped raise money for a good cause. Proceeds from this inaugural I-Sledders 2015 Charity Snowmobile Ride on February 20-22 benefit iWarriors, which provides technology and assistance for wounded service members to help with rehabilitation and recovery from physical injuries, post traumatic stress and traumatic brain injuries.

Early Resolution for 2015
To date, industry donations to iWarriors--a nonprofit organization founded in 2011 by Tim and Kim Bartz of Mold Craft--have helped to supply more than 260 combat wounded veterans with iPads, so they can keep in touch with friends and loved ones as they recover and rehabilitate. Today they announce the 2015 iWarriors challenge. Can you help them achieve the goal?

All According to Plan
