Whoops! I meant to mention, in my last email about the penny war, what the money is being raised for!
All funds raised from our SJS penny war will be used to assist military veterans in the chance to fly to Washington D.C. and experience the viewing of the special memorials of military personnel from WWII, Korean War, Vietnam War, etc. The flight is absolutely free for vets to make this trip and we want to help them fulfill their dream of visiting D.C.
Please see the website below for more details. SUCH a great cause and what an honor and privilege it is to be able to assist in getting them to achieve this experience. It's the least we can do as they have laid their lives on the line for our freedom and our country.
Again, thank you for all of the coins you have sent to school with your child! May we all continue to keep our fallen and current military men and women in our prayers. What real super heros they are!!!
