Grand Island, NE — Hornady® recently donated $39,179.50 to the GRACE Cancer Foundation in Grand Island, NE, to help the organization in its support of local cancer patients and their families.
The donation represents a percentage of sales from Critical Defense® Lite™, the pink-tipped ammunition produced by Hornady®.
The best ammunition for personal defense, Critical Defense® features the FTX® bullet with its patented Flex Tip®, which aids expansion and eliminates clogging when passing through clothing.
Critical Defense® Lite™ offers an effective, reduced-recoil option for any shooter looking to minimize felt recoil of their lightweight, compact, personal protection firearm.
In addition to the recent donation, support from Hornady® throughout the year includes serving as event sponsor for the GRACE New Year’s Eve Gala.
“Cancer impacts not only the person receiving the diagnosis but the entire family,” said Hornady® Vice President Jason Hornady. “As a family-owned and -operated business, we applaud the GRACE Cancer Foundation in its support of patients and families fighting this deadly disease.”
Established in 2008, the GRACE Cancer Foundation provides emotional and financial support to cancer patients who live within 40 miles of Grand Island, NE, or are being treated at the Grand Island Cancer Treatment Center.
