Help Our Organization Raise Donations For 3 Hots And A Cot!
We will be having another meeting soon and we will be posting more information on the date of the event. It would be great if we could raise some donations for our cause again! If each attending member could bring a brown paper sack with food, clothes, or anything else that would be valuable to a veteran trying to work his or her way back into a self-sustained lifestyle that would be great!
Here is a post from 3 Hots And A Cot showing our organization thanks for our support.
