Life Help a Veteran Out?

58-4ever · 10:35 AM

Hi All -

This is the first thread I've started like this so I hope I'm going about it the right way. My little brother (A US Army Veteran) has been given a great opportunity to run in the Escape from Alcatraz triathlon to support the families of fallen heroes. I thought this would be a good day to ask for any and all support.

In his words:

I am lucky to have been given the opportunity to join the 2015 Seal Legacy Foundation's Escape From Alcatraz Triathlon Team. As a former soldier myself I am humbled at the opportunity to represent America's most dedicated warrior's. While I was in Afghanistan one of my greatest fears was causing my family pain if I was unable to return. The Seal Legacy Foundation cannot replace a father, money cannot bring back a hero. I am just proud to be able to represent this group, as they take care of the families of these extraordinary men. These families really do deserve our support. I thank all my friends for joining me in telling these families how grateful we are, and letting them know they are not alone.

850 dollars has been pledged of a needed 3500. Every 5 dollars helps.

Thank you in advance and all my casino money and undying admiration goes to the highest donor. If you're in the KC area, I'll buy you a beer or 5 as well

it's not going to him. It's going to the Seal Foundation.

We could really use any more support that we can get.

58-4ever · 05-25-2015, 05:58 PM

It looks like we had an anonymous donor. Thank you whomever you are!
