Wounded Warrior Project: As Veterans Day approaches, we are taking part in Honor Their Courage, a Wounded Warrior Project® (WWP) initiative to raise awareness and funds that provide life-changing programs for wounded warriors and their families. Our goal is to raise $250 this year. Wounded Warrior Project is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization whose mission is to honor and empower injured veterans. Since its founding in 2003, WWP has been transforming the lives of America’s injured veterans and their families through programs and services in mental health, career counseling, and long-term rehabilitative care, along with advocacy efforts, improving the lives of millions of warriors and their families. If you would like to donate toward our fundraising goal, visit the following link to make a contribution. Also, we’d like to invite you to attend our Veterans Day program at the middle school. It will take place on November 11 at 10 AM in the school gym. Thank you!
