An important letter from Whitney Webb of Higher Purpose

I hope this letter finds you well! My name is Whitney Webb and I am writing on behalf of Higher Purpose-The Event Foundation. Our organization, which has been working to make an impact for veterans and children since 2011, is proud and honored to host the first annual “Jeff Keith’s Ride for Ryan,” on May 3, 2025. Since the unexpected passing of the founder Ryan Fleenor, Higher Purpose-The Event Foundation is coming back with an even bigger mission in our hearts.

Our mission is to provide trauma informed services to at risk, underprivileged children and veterans so that we renew hope for a better tomorrow. Our organization is devoted to ensuring our veterans have the services they need to heal and that every child is given the opportunity to succeed. We have partnered with the STARS Program to provide vital services for children and their families, Toys 4 Tots, and with other programs such as Sampson Outdoors, Wild OPS and the Veterans Golf Program.

Giving back to those who have given so much to this country. 

Because of your membership support, a percentage of the profits made by “Sampson Outdoors” will be shared with a non-profit organization known as WILD OPS; an organization devoted to helping veterans with “Post Traumatic Stress Disorder”, (PTSD). My cousins, Marsha and Scott Robertson, (Si Robertson’s son, on the popular show “Duck Dynasty”) are members of WILD OPS and have provided ”Sampson Outdoors” the opportunity to partner with their organization.
