I recently stumbled into the website of this non-partisan, non-profit organization,
http://www.thanksusa.org">ThanksUSA that gives scholarships to the children and spouses of our troops. I'm not trying to spam, but wanted to let everyone know about this cause that I think is something we all can support.
ThanksUSA offers two interconnected programs: the
https://www.thanksusa.org/main/registration/step1.html;jsessionid=5C336F422DE2F82C04ECB1B9A07EA440">National Treasure Hunt and the Military Family Scholarship Program. The treasure hunt raises awareness, excitement, and funds for the scholarship program in an educational, family-friendly way. And the scholarships are an invaluable way to "thank" our troops with the gift of education, providing 1,000 scholarships a year for up to $5,000. In addition to helping out the men and women of our armed forces, you can also win some great prizes including; a trip for 2 to the 2007 Super Bowl, a trip for 4 to 2007 Daytona 500, a trip for 2 to the 2007 Academy Awards, A Harley-Davidson Motorcycle and Two Mountain Bikes, and much more.
Take a look if you have a few minutes, I'm hoping for the Superbowl tickets. Thanks.
