Honored American Veterans Afield (HAVA) and the National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF) announce the election of NSSF Senior Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer Chris Dolnack to the HAVA Board of Directors, joining directors from Smith & Wesson, Mossberg, Leupold & Stevens, Yamaha Outdoors and XS Sights.

Dolnacks election will further the HAVA/NSSF partnership that helps drive industry support for disabled veterans and will hopefully encourage more industry companies to join the cause of helping disabled veterans return to civilian life.  

Chris was an early supporter of HAVA since our founding in 2008, said HAVA Chairman Tom Taylor. He saw the need for such a major industry veterans initiative, and has driven NSSF to join our elite list of sustaining sponsors and encouraged many NSSF members to add their assets to this important cause. Having him on our governing board will substantially add to our progress as we pursue the critical mission of helping our wounded military men and women rebuild their confidence that the best of life for them and their families is in their future  

I am honored to be elected to the HAVA Board and look forward to contributing more to this critical mission of support for the American heroes that have done so much to defend freedom, said Dolnack. We at NSSF are proud of our contribution to date and look forward to helping add more partnership programs to the HAVA event schedule with the help of an ever increasing roster of our members. HAVA represents the best of our industrys instincts in support of our military and it will be our privilege to increase our participation.
