John Kerry: Help for Heroes And Children ("Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund")
Edited on Tue Dec-19-06 03:23 PM by Hissyspit
Dear --,

As you and your loved ones celebrate the holidays, I hope you will take a moment to reach out and help those who know the face of America's ideals and the spirit of shared sacrifice.

Will you take a moment right now to support the Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund and War Kids Relief?

We can never repay the men and women who have been injured in service to our country. But supporting the Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund is one simple way to begin expressing our gratitude.

The Fund has constructed a world-class, state-of-the-art physical rehabilitation center at Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio, Texas. The center will serve military personnel who have been catastrophically disabled in operations in Iraq and Afghanistan -- as well as soldiers and veterans injured in other operations.

Your donation can help provide services to the patients who will be treated in the Center and their families. They've given so much to us. Let's take a moment right now, in the midst of the holiday season, to give back to them.

ACT NOW TO SUPPORT THE INTREPID FALLEN HEROES FUND:

There are others who have borne war's burden that we need to help. As Army Captain Jonathan Powers patrolled Baghdad neighborhoods, he saw firsthand the look of both hope and fear in the faces of children caught in a war zone.

After returning home, he founded War Kids Relief, a program of Veterans for America.

War Kids Relief is the leading advocate for Iraq's children -- making a difference on the ground, helping stock Iraq's Youth Centers with the supplies and equipment needed to help children reclaim some sense of normalcy in difficult situations that no child should ever have to face.

ACT NOW TO SUPPORT WAR KIDS RELIEF.

I urge you to do anything you can to support these two vitally important charities.

With thanks and best wishes,

John Kerry
