| John, a recently
discharged US Army veteran and recipient of the Purple Heart
has been unemployed since his discharge. With no
family to support him he has been living with friends who
have paid for his lodging, food and everyday necessities.
With the help of our supporters John is now going back home
to Georgia, where he will enroll in a school of higher
education (using the GI Bill). John is very grateful
for the assistance provided as he was able to get his
telephone service re-established and pay to have his
computer fixed and pay a little back to the friends who have
been supporting him. |
John sent his thanks via email as
follows:

To whom it may concern
I recently received a check from your organization not too long ago
and I am sending this
email to thank everyone from the deepest part of me. To everyone
that made the decision to
help an old wounded Iraq veteran get back on his feet and start to
piece his life back
together I thank you so very much. I was able to pay off some debts
with my friends and
get myself back home where there is a better job and education
waiting for me and without
the help of this outstanding foundation none of this would be
possible for me. I am not
the kind of person that likes to take what they call "hand-outs"
because of my roots of a
southern man born and raised in Acworth, Georgia and the military
bearing that I still
carry to this day and I would like the thank the foundation in
person one day in the
future and repay the money that was given to me that way the money
that i received is
returned to you and can be given to another fellow veteran in a
similar situation that
might need the same help that i received some day.
Sincerely,
John H.
