November 14, 2011 - South Florida - We're happy to report that our first ever charity poker tournament, All-In for Vets, was a huge success!
Dozens of participants gathered around the felt-lined tables at the Dania Beach Jai-Alai arena on Saturday, November 12 to play some Texas Hold ‘Em for a good cause! The proceeds went to support our organization's continuing efforts to provide free or reduced cost IMEs to disabled veterans, and the night was a huge help to that effort!
We'd like to share a few photos of the final table, which included Care for Disabled Veterans' founder, Ken LaVan, as well as his law firm partner, Adam Neidenberg, as well as some distinguished veterans and other members of the Care for Disabled Veterans volunteer team.
The Final Table
Care for Disabled Veterans would like to extend our deepest thanks to all participants for their generous donations to our organization. We would especially like to thank the 4 gentlemen whose poker prowess landed them the top 4 rankings at the final 10 table.
Winner Andy Martin with Adam & Ken.
Winner George Aladro
Overall Winner Vincent Santaniello
Our 4th winner, Andy Gessner, wasn't caught in time for a photograph, but he was one of the wonderful players who helped make this night a success! Their donation of $400 is just a portion of the funds raised during this exciting night and they weren't the only winners at our event! Many other participants walked away with raffle prizes and wins on the Spin-A-Wheel - and don't forget those lucky bidders in the silent auction!
We hope that everyone who attended our two-day event had as much fun as we did. Please keep connected through our blog, website, and Facebook page to learn about more ways Care for Disabled Veterans is helping our military men and women obtain the benefits they deserve!

Our veterans deserve the utmost care and respect in exchange for their sacrifice and service to our country, yet many suffer with disabling medical conditions and illness and struggle to make ends meet after life in the service. At Care for Disabled Veterans our goal is to assist qualified veterans in obtaining the medical evidence they need to seek their rightful benefits for combat-related disabilities.
