Presentation transcript:

“…with charity for all, … 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 … to do all which may achieve and cherish a just and lasting peace among ourselves …” -Abraham Lincoln

Those who have sacrificed 48 million citizens have served in the Armed Forces since million have died while serving Tens of millions have been injured They are our mothers and fathers, our sons and daughters, our neighbors and friends

Let us match the commitment of our Veterans by coming together as a community to care for them

Let us live up to the words of Abraham Lincoln “…with charity for all, … 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 … to do all which may achieve and cherish a just and lasting peace among ourselves …”
