The need is great right now--the accounts are empty and the only way the wounded will get laptops, Wiis or handheld GPS from Soldiers' Angels to assist their recovery is through the money raised by this competition. Financial times are uncertain, of course, but that doesn't change the needs out there.
Captain (now Major) Chuck Ziegenfuss used a voice-controlled laptop after he was seriously wounded in Iraq in 2005.
There's a lot of talk about how America as a whole isn't sacrificing for this war. How about we change that, starting with the small things?
Please join us as we blog, share, and "sacrifice" something for the wounded whose sacrifice gives that very word its true meaning. Freedom isn't free, of course. And as Grim says, "Project Valour-IT is for the ones that have paid some of the highest prices. The only ones who have paid more are beyond earthly help." What are you going to give up today to give to the troops?
Oops! Was that a USMC button I put up there? *looks around innocently*
