W.J. Bradley Mortgage Capital and Defending the Blue Line Join Forces to Secure Stronger Futures for Military Families
DENVER, Jan. 6, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- W.J. Bradley Mortgage Capital, LLC (W.J. Bradley), a privately-held mortgage banking firm, today announced it has formed a relationship with Defending the Blue Line (DTBL), a Minnesota-based non-profit foundation formed to assist military families and children stay active with the sport of hockey regardless of any deployment or monetary restrictions.
Established in 2012, DTBL provides children of military families, both active and honorably discharged veterans, the opportunity to grow their talent and knowledge in hockey with brand new equipment, hockey camps, grants for local association fees and rare experiences at NHL games like watching events from luxury suites or lower level seats.
DTBL has partnered with 17 NHL teams and more than 40 professional hockey players to help make this possible. Throughout the 2014-2015 season, W.J. Bradley representatives will be present during the military appreciation nights held by all participating NHL teams, in support of the DTBL partnership as well as military service men and women. Additionally, W.J. Bradley representatives will be visiting military bases to ensure active military members are educated on the best home financing options.
"Our mission as an organization is to make sure that no child is deprived of the opportunity to play hockey due to their parents' military service, whether they be wounded, deployed or killed in the line of duty," said Shane Hudella, DTBL President & Founder. "Hockey is one of the most expensive sports a child can play, so every single dollar our organization earns is taken extremely serious. Gaining W.J. Bradley's partnership is doubly positive due to the home financing education they can also provide to our country's active military members. All of us at DTBL are excited to see everything that can come out of this partnership for the children's sake as well as mortgage education aspect of it."
"As a veteran friendly organization, this is a meaningful partnership for us," said William J. Bradley, CEO & Founder of W.J. Bradley. "The ability to play a role in a cause that provides young athletes the opportunity to learn, expand their skills and do more while their parents work hard near and far away to protect our freedom was an opportunity we could not resist."
