Standing with Our Heroes: Major Sponsor of Xtreme Couture G.I. Foundation

UFC 6-time champion, Randy Couture and the Xtreme Couture GI Foundation is hosting the 7th Annual Ride for our Troops on Saturday, July 19th, 2025, right here in the Quad Cities. Last year, Randy’s Foundation gave away over $300,000 to wounded veterans in need. Quad Cities weekend events raised almost $100,000 alone due to our generous sponsors and participants. One hundred percent of all proceeds go straight to the veterans and their families. There are no salaries and zero compensation to any of the workers. It all comes from hard working volunteers and communities like ours that want to give back to those who have fought and suffered for our freedoms.

We are looking for event sponsors to join GetPipe.com. This is the 5th year in a row we have sponsored this life changing event and this is the 2nd year in a row we are proud to be the major sponsor. I am the Midwest Ambassador for the IA/IL chapter, which is why this charity is near and dear to our hearts. We proudly display the charity logo on all our apparel for our employees and customers. We are reaching out to all our vendors and top customers to see if you will join us in some compacity to sponsor or donate a raffle item for this year’s event. We are asking for donations to be raffled or auctioned off during the weekend of events. If you elect to donate a raffle or auction item, your name and/or organization will be displayed and announced at the day of the event to show our appreciation and your support for our wounded veterans. As a sponsor, your business name will be featured on our banner, marketing materials and you will also be invited to attend the private VIP party with Randy on Thursday, July 17th. It’s a simple way for you or your business to say thank you to those who fought for our freedoms.

Each day, 18 to 22 veterans commit suicide due to the physical, mental and financial struggles they face after returning from the front lines. We can help decrease those numbers and give these wounded veterans what they deserve, which is our support and to provide them with whatever resources they may need to cope with their struggles. Attached are the levels of sponsorship. It’s Our Time to Serve Them.

The Xtreme Couture GI Foundation, a 501 (c) 3 non-profit corporation, was founded by Randy Couture in 2009 to honor the veterans of America's armed forces. The foundation was especially formed to raise money and awareness for those wounded in action and their families. Many of the injuries are traumatic amputations, gunshot wounds, burns and blast injuries that will retire these brave men and woman from the armed forces. Even though some of these men and woman are severely injured, they have the courage, strength and determination to win this battle. “I wore Army green for 6 years and I know the sacrifices and courage these brave men and women take every day to uphold our nations; military doctrine and to protect the American Way of Life”
