Building homes and relationships

LEXINGTON, Ky. (WTVQ) – Jacob Tamme held his 7th annual “Swings for Soldiers” golf outing Monday to benefit “Homes for Our Troops.”

More than $500,000 has been raised by the event here in central Kentucky to build homes for veterans in need of fully handicap-accessible living quarters.

Marine Corporal Kevin Blanchard is this year’s recipient.  Blanchard joked Tamme is his new favorite football player, but all joking aside, the event really does try and give back to those who have given so much to all of us.

That’s exactly why Tamme hopes it continues for years to come.
