You can promote the work of the Foundation simply by saying "Thanks" to the next Veteran or Active Duty Member of the armed services you see. Spotting a Veteran is easy. Look at the license plate of the car parked next to you at work. You may find the individual is a Purple Heart recipient or simply a Veteran of the Armed Forces.
Stop by a local recruiting station, nursing home, VFW, or American Legion and simply say "Thanks".
