Combat Veterans Motorcycle Association® Charlotte Chapter 15-2

The Combat Veterans Motorcycle Association® (CVMA®) Chapter 15-2, based in Charlotte, North Carolina, is part of a nationwide association of combat veterans who share a passion for riding motorcycles and a commitment to serving fellow veterans. As a recognized 501(c)(19) veterans' charity, the chapter's mission is rooted in supporting and defending those who have defended our nation.

Chapter 15-2, known as "The Usual Suspects", operates within the North Carolina CVMA® network and contributes to statewide and local initiatives that provide meals, clothing, shelter, guidance, and direct assistance to veterans' in need. the chapter also participates in and sponsors numerous veteran-focused charity rides, community events, and outreach programs throughout the Charlotte region.

Members include:

Full Members: Veterans with verified combat service
Support Members: Veterans with non-combat service who are dedicated to helping the veteran community
Auxiliary Members: Spouses of Full and Support Members

The CVMA® is not a motorcycle club (MC) and does not claim territory. Instead, it is an association united by service, camaraderie, and a shared mission to uplift veterans and their families. With members across all 50 states and abroad, including active-duty service members, Chapter 15-2 proudly represents the Charlotte area within this larger national brotherhood.
