While folding clothes, i ran across this article at fthoodherald.com
USA Cares seeks Iraq-Afghanistan vets for housing
Something struck me about this. Maybe i am just too much of an advocate for USA Cares (is there such a thing?), but i really liked that USA Cares reached out to find people to help, and didn't just wait and see if those needing "a hand up" would come to them.
That's just classy. A thumbs up to USA Cares.
On another note... i have read a post at one of my favorite blogs... A Soldier's Perspective , about Books For Soldiers. You can read about their call for help here.
It's sad to hear about a group of do-gooders that have gotten together with a common purpose and they don't have the ability to continue in their good work. I hope they find some corporate sponsorships to help. Wouldn't you think that a company like Barnes and Noble would step up to the plate and support an organization like this? Maybe a few emails wouldn't hurt?
