A NOTE FROM THE EDITOR
NOËL MCCALL
|
|
As we prepare to close the books on 2019, I can't begin to express how grateful I am to all of the sponsors, new and returning, and volunteers we had throughout the year. It really has been a pillar year for Patriots Path.
Not only did we teach more courses and reach more veterans than ever before (our #1 goal) but we expanded where our courses are being taught, to now include Camp Lejeune.
With the giving season upon us, I would be remiss not to remind everyone to consider donating or volunteering this holiday season. A little goes a long way.
Undoubtedly, you will be heavily solicited this month and next, and as you decide where to put the last of your donation dollars this year, please do consider Patriots Path. We are a registered non-profit 501(c)(3) organization and our work is made possible only by the generous donations of our corporate sponsors and individuals like yourself.
Thank you so much in advance, and happy holidays!

PAY IT FORWARD:
Veterans, if you completed the Patriots Path course and found it to be valuable, which we hope you did, please consider who you can recommend to the course. You can also become a volunteer or a guest speaker. "You're part of the Patriots Path family now!"
