Give a little......

It's Valour IT time!! WooHoo......a time for raising money and awareness for a truly WONDERFUL project.

I've been lucky enough to be a part of this since the FIRST on-line contest, and this year I'm working with the ARMY team to see just how much money we can raise.

But....I know I have limited readership. And I'm also aware that most of my readers follow several of the Mil-Blogs already. Oh, it doesn't get you off the hook - I'm still gonna need you to pony up a few bucks for a GREAT program. But it doesn't stop there. Not by a long shot.

In order to REALLY make an impact we need to step OUTSIDE the blogisphere. Now, I don't have a lot of money. And I don't have a lot of time. But I DO talk. A lot. And I tell EVERYONE about Soldiers Angels and especially Valour IT.

And along with donating I'm asking that you do the same. I've sent an email out to all non-bloggers in my address book. And I'll send another. And probably another until this fundraiser is over on November 11th.

It's THAT important. Every laptop donated makes SUCH an impact. SUCH a difference.

And it's so easy to make that happen. I've found no one who gives me any grief about this program. No matter their politics. HOW can ANYONE begrudge something like this to a wounded hero? I haven't seen it......

So - this is what I'm gonna need for you to do. First - donate to the Army team via the button below. THEN....spread the word. If you're a blogger, pick a team and spread the word. If you're not, you obviously have internet access so send out some emails, talk to the folks around you. TELL THE STORY.

If you aren't comfortable donating on-line there's a snail mail addy....

Soldiers' Angels
Project Valour-IT Fund - ARMY TEAM
1792 E. Washington Blvd
Pasadena, Ca 91104

**make sure to add that ARMY TEAM in there. After all, we ARE the ones making it easy for you. ;-)

Oh - and in case you didn't know - the donation is tax deductible. So now there's NO reason to not participate. None. None at all.

It's the VERY least that we can do.......

**Matt over at Blackfive - the Army Leadership HQ - has a fabulous post up with all the details. Take a minute and head over there to learn more about this incredible program. It's worth the time. I promise.
