I volunteer for a non-profit, "Grateful American Coin". We raise funds for the Paws for Patriots program by selling Grateful American challenge coins. Check out our website for more details on this program.

I will be out in the square soon promoting GAC, I hope to meet more of you.
Have you heard of Operation Shoebox? They meet every Monday at Lake Miona. This would be good info for their members to be aware of. Many attendees have family who are serving in the military or who have served. It would be good to make everyone aware of the Paws for Patriots program for the treatment of PTSS. Their organization is listed under clubs with contacts numbers there.
