BOOTS ON THE GROUND CALI MISSION STATEMENT

To Serve and assist California communities impacted by disasters. To respect and support our law enforcement and military. 

Boots On The Ground Cali (BOTCG) is an all-volunteer community organization. It's founder, Aaron Bate, started the group in 2015 and the group recently achieved 5013C charitable status. Aaron's family has a long history of serving in the military. 

BOTCG has provided support and supplies to California fire victims of the Paradise, Caldor, Dixie and Camp fire as well as others across the state. Members of BOTCG personally purchased and delivered supplies directly to several fire victims that were living in shopping center and church parking lots. 

BOTCG has also collected supplies for care packages for our troops. Christmas and Thanksgiving dinners have been provided to less fortunate families in the past. Such activities are funded by donations and sales of BOTCG gear such as T shirts, hoodies and hats. 

A local news station interviewed some of BOTCG's members to discuss why and how they help California Communities. The common thread was that we are here to serve and assist others. There is more to life than self.
