Ivan Stoltzfus is riding his tractor across America to support wounded warriors. He left New Jersey in April and this week he's in the Quad Cities to pay us a visit.

Ivan needs some corporate sponsorships, so if you know any of the higher-ups at John Deere make sure to hit them up.

"The wounded warriors always pulled at my heart. I just feel like sometimes they are having trouble getting situated back into civilian life and I just want to bring awareness for them," Stoltzfus said, when we caught up with him on the road right outside Colona.

His goal, he says, is to change lives - one mile at a time.

"I was never in the military but I always felt like I wanted to give back," he said.
