The Gary Sinise Foundation Snowball Express honors Gold Star families from across the nation, offering a space of remembrance, healing, and connection.

The Patriot Guard Riders (PGR) proudly partner with the Foundation to ensure these remarkable children and families—along with First Responders and their loved ones—know that their sacrifices, and those of their fallen heroes, will never be forgotten.

During the event, PGR hosts a dedicated room filled with activities and keepsakes for the children. From “Biker in Training” vests adorned with patches to personalized dog tags, photos, and more, these tokens spark joy and connection. Kids love engaging with our volunteers, and families deeply value the warmth and support we bring.

With the recent expansion of Snowball Express to include First Responder families, our costs have grown significantly. If you’re able to contribute, your donation will help us continue this meaningful mission.

The Patriot Guard Riders is a federally registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit, and all donations are fully tax-deductible.
