Guest Hydro130 Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 Mods, I know this isn't aviation-related, but it can get eligible folks some free money, so I thought I'd try posting it... To all of you out there who have MN as HOR, check out www.thankmntroops.org It's a completely LEGIT organization that has collected donations in order to give out grants to all active-duty/guard/reserve bubbas -- all branches of service, active or retired or separated. Just need to have MN documented as your HOR, and must have deployed to a combat zone since 9/11. More info on the website. Heck, it may only be a couple hundred bucks (might be a lot more, depending on your circumstances [disabled, etc]), but it's free money, no strings attached! Just some good, generous folks saying thanks on behalf of MN for your service... No kidding, it's not a scam -- the program's been getting a lot of good press here and nationally recently, and is the real deal. I'm filling out my app currently... Cheers, Hydro EDIT: combat deployment requirement clarification [ 31. May 2006, 09:58: Message edited by: Hydro130 ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest KoolKat Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 Wow. That's pretty cool. Come on Florida...What'cha waiting for Jeb? It's nice to see people be so caring, not to mention show it in such a tangible way. Everyone be sure to let your enlisted troops know about this if MN is their HOR. Good stuff, Hydro. BENDY [ 30.
