Do what YOU can do, be creative! Fundraiser ideas:
Terry and Joe Fisher in Calumet City, IL and the "FREEDOM RIDERS"
assembled to welcome home USMC Shane Klar returning from Iraq.
Terry let them know about Operation Ward 57 and a member of the Honor
Guard had the riders sign their flag for the patients and staff of
Ward 57 & 58. The flag now resides on the Ward.
Thank you to all for your amazing support!
Thank you to our volunteers who worked 4-36 hours getting out the first massive shirt order of 880 shirts. 1100 more are on the way!
