A local motorcycle club chapter has once again stepped up with a meaningful contribution to the Soup Kitchen of Greater Wheeling.
Boozefighters Motorcycle Club Chapter 72 has recently donated $5,500 to the Soup Kitchen, marking their 14th consecutive year of significant support. This brings their total contributions—inclusive of money, clothing, and goods—to well over tens of thousands of dollars.
“This donation is more than just a monetary contribution,” stated Chapter 72 President Mike “Bull” Napple. “It symbolizes the heart and spirit of our club, representing our ongoing commitment to aid those who are in need. The Wheeling Soup Kitchen plays an essential role in feeding and supporting our community, and we’re grateful to contribute to this vital mission.”
Year after year, Boozefighters MC Chapter 72 has collaborated with the soup kitchen to deliver food, essential resources, and hope to those in need across the region.
Members of the club raise funds through various events, raffles, and a charity ride held the first weekend in November that everyone is welcome to join, all in support of the Soup Kitchen’s mission to combat hunger in the local area.
The Wheeling Boozefighters express gratitude to the numerous sponsors who have supported their efforts over the years, allowing them to make such impactful contributions to the Wheeling Soup Kitchen.
This year’s sponsors include Croft and Sons MFG, Valley Harley Davidson, Armed Forces Motorcycle Club, the Alpha Tavern, Breaking Skin Tattoo, Frio’s Bail Bonds, Taylor’s Auto, Rods RV Camp, Dan-o Welding, Lowry’s Metals, Mark Lake, and Park Circle Cafe.
