Luke Reinhard, a businessman from Portland, Maine is biking over 1,000 miles from Indianapolis, Indiana to Portland, Maine to raise awareness about the challenges faced by military families and to promote several organizations that help make a difference in the lives of these families.  Operation Tribute founder Marc Badeau stated “We are delighted to have been recognized by Luke as an organization that has a lasting impact on the children of miltary families.  Luke’s courageous journey demonstrates the vital importance of shedding light on the daily difficulties faced by these families and particularly the children of military families.  We are grateful for Luke’s support and recognition and wish him the best on his Tour.”    Luke, a senior financial advisor with Reinhard & Associates in Portland, Maine stated,  “I can’t even comprehend the sacrifices that military families are going through. I get caught up in my little trials and tribulations which are nothing compared to having a family member in harm’s way. I believe our military families deserve more recognition and gratitude. In a small way, this is my thank you to those who give so much.”  To make a donation to Operation Tribute in support of Luke’s journey, please include a note with payment that the donation is in response to Luke’s bike journey.
