I have added a new widget to the sidebar. It stands above all the others because it supports the veterans of the United States of America. This Veterans Day, the Eleven Eleven Campaign is trying to raise $11 from 11 million Americans.
John Hinderaker at Powerline explains:
The objective of the campaign is simple: to get 11 million Americans to donate $11 to support America’s Veterans. We’ve made giving back to our Vets simple through a national Text to Give Campaign (simply text “VETS” to 85944 to contribute).
Contributions are distributed directly to Beyond Tribute’s 11 coalition partners, who specialize in providing direct services and advocacy for Veterans of all eras and conflicts, including World War II, the Korean War, the Vietnam War, Persian Gulf War, and the present day conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan.
We’re asking bloggers from around the web and across the political spectrum to join us in making this Veteran’s Day a holiday not about sales in the stores, but about making a difference in the lives of our Veterans.
Eleven dollars.
It’s not that much is it. Not much at all compared to what the Veterans of America’s military have given to us.
Please donate.
