The Ultimate Fighting Championship is looking for your support this Memorial Day weekend by donating your Facebook page to the “Call of Duty Endowment”. For every person who donates their Facebook status between today and Monday, the fund will give the Hire Heroes USA (HHUSA) $1 – up to a total of $50,000.
The Hire Heroes USA is a not-for-profit organization that provides employment transition assistance to veterans of the United States military.
UFC 130 main card middleweight, Brian Stann, is the president of the Hire Heroes USA program. Stann is a former United States Marine Corps Captain who served several tours in Iraq and was awarded the Silver Star for his actions during Operation Matador in 2005. Stann retired from duty in May of 2008.
The former Marine is scheduled to meet Jorge Santiago in the opening pay-per-view bout of UFC 130 in Las Vegas.
