![]() Never in a million years did I see myself standing in front of hundreds of people carrying out my patriotic duty with the passion that I have today. Today, after months of organization, countless conference calls, emails and gather photos of America's fallen, we were able to do something that needed to be done, we honored the fallen and carried on their memory. Across the nation communities united to pay tribute to service members who gave the ultimate sacrifice for our freedoms. While we honored the fallen Saturday, we were showing support to the veterans & service members still here today. Below you will see why... Did you know 100% of your donation goes directly to the cause of advocating and educating our military! http://www.militaryveteranproject.org/donate.html Currently, veterans have to wait for nearly 200 days for benefits from the VA because of backlog? Or that cutbacks have forced VA hospitals to cut staffing and costs which directly affects the care our veterans receive? 22 veterans commit suicide a day? Millions of veterans need medical help for PTSD, TBI's and peer to peer support and with your donation today, you can help! Now for many of you that may have followed the story of SSG Jamie Jarboe, you saw first hand and experienced our hardships. The struggles we had learning how to navigate the military medical system, not because it is broken, but because there is so much to learn and understand. Today, I take the knowledge I was given advocating for Jamie & thousands of other veterans & active duty service members and educate the community and families on how to protect their loved ones. How to use the system and steps to take to understand how it works. While we focus on educating medical power of attorneys of veterans and service members, we take the time to create a peer to peer support program for each veteran that is requesting medical assistance. Please help us move forward to make a difference in a veteran's life.
