12 MAY 2009 5050

Today should be a happy day, we received notification yesterday that the top salesman of the year for a nationally known insurance company had asked that his award be given to USA Cares. The President of that company sent us a letter telling us about it and saying that a check for $15,000 would be headed our way. That should have made our day, but instead we learn of the tragic story out of Baghdad where allegedly a soldier has killed five of his fellow service members. 

The news is reporting that this all happened in a stress relief center. As you know, we are working on expanding our Warrior Treatment Today program and help eliminate barriers to treatment, like who will provide for the family while I am in the hospital? The answer is, USA Cares will. We now have 11 service members in the new program and are expanding to three more states this week. But consider that there are reportedly over 338,000 who are possibly suffering from PTSD we are not even making a dent yet, but our hope is that the 11 we are touching will have a better life.

Thanks for helping. if you want to read more here is a link:  IRAQ TRAGEDY

I hope you will all pray for those who were lost, and those who suffer.
