We began making hand made flags and "support a buddy overseas" program (all the kids ideas and their own hard work). Thank you for this opportunity.

Linda Young “Just wanted to let you know that I gave the gift card to the family I met through the Equestrian Therapy program. They were so surprised and grateful for the gift. They drive 2 1/2 hours for hospital appointments, so the $500 goes a long way towards helping with their expenses. I am happy that I got to play Santa Claus this year thanks to ThanksUSA!” |

Chapter 6:
Linda Young "My husband and I just celebrated our 15th wedding anniversary. We are the proud parents of 4 beautiful daughters (one is missing from the pic, as usual). My father-in-law died while serving in the Air Force. The benefits my husband received for that allowed him to earn a degree without a single student loan! My grandfather was a proud sailor with the Navy. He served our country for 20 years which included the Vietnam war. I have several cousins that have done multiple tours in Iraq and Afghanistan. My family is proud to support the men and women who serve our country and the families that support them!” |

"I stumbled across the ThanksUSA Tennis Thanks the Troops Trivia Contest purely by accident. When I read more about what the organization is about and how it helps military families with scholarships for education, I was even more encouraged to enter the contest. Thank you for doing so much for military families!" -- Randi Dolphin |
