Wounded Warrior Project

I just want to extend my deepest thanks to our American Soldiers. They sacrafice so much for us to be able to live freely. It is so easly taken for granted. Always remember Home of the free, because of the brave.

I have a deep passion and genuine concern for our wounded veterans. These men and women fought the battle, and have the wounds of freedom to show for it. I want to help out. I have found an awesome organization called the Wounded Warrior Project.

I am going to write thank you letters to our wounded veterans thanking them and their familes for their sacrafice. These letters are to be mailed to the organizations headquarters in Jacksonville, Florida. The letters will be given to wounded veterans and soldiers in a bookbag care package at hospitals around the country. Its so sad to think that some of these soldiers come home to nothing. No clothes, no food, no soap, no home. It's just not right.

I am hopeful that I can one day volunteer more time at veteran hospitals - and maybe one day host my own event! That would be the greatest feeling ever.

Also, the organization welcomes creative ideas for cool events and fundraisers around the country. If you have an idea please submit!


I feel that this is the absolute least I can do for the courage, bravery, and sacrifce these people have done for me personally, and for my country.

Keep this in the back of your mind. And if you ever want to share your thanks - get involved with the Wounded Warrior Project.
