(LosAngeles.CityRegions.Com, March 16, 2015 ) Shadow Hills, CA -- Pin-Ups for Vets is a non-profit charitable organization that supports and offers assistance to injured veterans, their families, and troops in the field through charity events and the sale of their annual pin-up calendars.
"The pin-up is such an iconic symbol in the military," said founder, Gina Elise. She is the granddaughter of a WWII veteran and when she started hearing stories of the many injured and sick veterans returning from Iraq and Afghanistan who were not getting the healthcare and general care they needed due to underfunding, she decided to do something about it.
She said she has "always loved the romance of those bygone eras - especially the 1940's - and I drew inspiration from the World War II pin-up girls, whose photos and paintings boosted morale for our soldiers fighting overseas." Since 2007, Pin-Ups for Vets has produced yearly calendars that were used to raise funds for hospitalized vets. Calendars were given as gifts to hospitalized vets and were also sent to deployed troops. They recently held the Blonde Bombshells – a Tribute to Screen Sirens fundraiser. As a result of this and others annual events and the sales of calendars, they have been able to donate over $50,000 in therapy equipment to VA Hospitals nationwide.
Gina Elise has this to say about Step and Repeat LA, "We were very impressed with the quick & efficient service, reasonable pricing, professionalism of the company and quality of the final product! This fundraiser for our ill & injured Veterans and Wounded Warriors was very successful and we want to thank you for contributing to that! Much much appreciation."
Step and Repeat LA has produced backdrops for many charitable organizations' fundraisers and red carpet events, offering a discount for non-profits. Their fast turnaround, quality products, and outstanding customer service have garnered praise and repeat customers, not only in Southern California, where they are based, but from across the country.
