2025 Salute to Service

In 2025, The Cpl. Christopher Kelly Willis Foundation is excited to once again have partnered with the Kalamazoo Growlers for "Salute to Service Night" as they took on the Royal Oak Leprechauns!

This special evening was dedicated to honoring the brave men and women of our armed services and supporting their families. The Corporal Christopher Kelly Willis Foundation would like to thank everyone who made this partnership with the Kalamazoo Growlers of the Northwoods League a reality.

During this special event, we had the privilege of presenting scholarships to Elea Riney and James Riney who are the children of American hero, Sgt. Douglas J. Riney who was killed in action in Afghanistan.

Sgt. Riney's dedication epitomized the spirit of service and sacrifice.

Join us for future events as we honor our military heros' legacies and show our support for their childrens' future. Your attendance and support at these events makes a meaningful difference in the lives of these deserving young individuals.

Thank you for standing with us in honoring our nation's heroes and ensuring their families are supported.
