Giving: Hope for the Warriors

June 3, 2009

“Greater love has no man than to lay down his life for his friends.”
– John 15:13

One of my husband’s best friends from college has presented us with a great way to support our military. Our friend is running a marathon on behalf of Hope for the Warriors, a non-profit organization dedicated to blessing the lives of both our wounded heroes and the families of those heroes who did not return. Regardless of your feelings on the war, this is a fantastic cause that honors the sacrifices on our behalf of wounded and fallen Americans.

Our friend has asked us to join his effort to support this cause by sponosoring him in the marathon. Will you join us? The race is October 25, but you can already become a sponsor HERE. I’m thrilled that we can be a part of supporting an organization like Hope for the Warriors.

“With malice toward none, with charity for all, with firmness in the right as God gives us to see the right, let us strive on to finish the work we are in, to bind up the nation’s wounds, to care for him who shall have borne the battle and for his widow and his orphan, to do all which may achieve and cherish a just and lasting peace among ourselves and with all nations.”

– Abraham Lincoln
