SJSU push-ups raise money for vets

San José State University’s Air Force ROTC Detachment 045 will host a fundraiser event for “The Boot Campaign.” Participants will raise money by doing push ups for the charity that supports wounded, disabled and killed in action veterans and service members on May 17, from 1-3 p.m. on the lawn near the SJSU Associated Student House.

During the event, which coincides with Armed Forces Day, teams across the United States will complete as many pushups as they can in 90 seconds. The local team has already raised $9,105, according to their online website. Donations are still being accepted and interested participants can still join their team by visiting: http://www.crowdrise.com/detachment045.
