Whats a good fund to donate my bonus to Families of our fallen soldiers

[FATCAT]

Believe it or not bonuses are still being given out in this economy (though we're not getting a raise for the 3rd year in a row) ...



So, I received a small bonus this half and want to send it to the families who's fathers and/or husbands who won't be coming home.



Not sure which funds are "legit" or which ones pass on 100% of the donation ... Marines, Army, ... what ever branch is fine.



I just want my bonus to go to those who need it most ... for the day to day things, for the children left behind, or for what ever.



So ... any good suggestions, recommendations?

That's mighty kind of `ya... .



Whoever ends up with it will surely put it to good use.

Ask

I would ask the troops in the soldiers unit if they have a fund or even know of a family in need. Giving direct to the family is the only way they get all of your donation.



Or you could donate to the Democratic party, that way we can get all the troops home a little sooner.

Radio and TV host, Sean Hannity has started a fund for the education of children of fallen warriors. He has a big fund raising concert coming up soon, in New Jersey.

FatCat,

As a member of our Armed Forces, let me THANK YOU for not forgetting those who gave their all and remembering those whom they left behind.

Next, you can call any military installation and reach their Aid Society to get the information that you need. If you would like, I can ask tomorrow and give you an answer. I'll PM you with the info.

WDaniels ... that would be great if you could give me a line to a good fund.



The bonus was only for $150, but I won't miss it.



Please PM me so I can get out a check ASAP.



Thanks again.
