Thursday we celebrated Thanksgiving…Friday was Black…Monday is spent in Cyperspace buying.
Tomorrow is Giving Tuesday.
Each year, no matter how hard we might try, we spend money on gifts that are not needed. We buy too much, spend too much, and in January, the bill is often too high.
On Giving Tuesday, if you donate to Hope For The Warriors®, we can guarantee that your donation is needed and will be used to restore self, family and hope to our military families. This blog is filled with stories of wounded service members we have helped, families that have been reunited, hope that have been restored through our programs.
