During this difficult year we have worked hard to serve our nations heroes. Our important work was highlighted in an excellent article in the December issue of Adirondack Life Magazine written by Brian Castner, Combat Veteran and renowned author.
We have served multiple Veterans in a variety of free services in addition to holding 9 retreats for PTSD at our Sgt Carlton A Clark Memorial Veterans Camp in Onchiota NY. Sadly we will need to find a new place to hold our retreats as the property we are currently leasing is being sold and we cannot afford to buy it.
One of the lessons we learned during this pandemic is that our retreats large or small save lives. Because of COVID and the need for social distancing we held smaller “sanctuaries” at the camp instead of the larger retreats. These weekends were intended for Veterans who were struggling with depression, PTSD and the isolation caused by the pandemic.We are proud that over 95% of the dollars you give goes directly to the Veterans programs. Our overhead is less than 3%. Please remember the soldiers in our world and we pledge to continue serving them through our programs.
