Every day the Yellow Ribbon Fund hears of service members and their families who can use our assistance. We do our best by offering free car rentals, cab vouchers, hotel rooms, apartments, job mentoring and internship programs and free tickets to cultural and sporting events. It is the generosity of our friends and donors that makes this possible. We often hear from the families of how we have helped makes their lives easier in difficult and stressesful circumstances. The letter below is one such example:
Dear Yellow Ribbon Fund:
I just wanted to take a minute and say Thank You for everything you have done for our family. We are going through the most difficult times of our lives and there is no way that we would be able to make it without your help. The Yellow Ribbon car that we use has kept our family together and made it possible for John to get to all his doctors appointments and our daughter Brittany back and forth to school. This means more than you can ever know.
John’s injuries are very serious … and you have managed to give him some peace of mind by taking care of our transportation needs. I hope you are able to continue doing the wonderful things your organization does for ALL the families that are going through difficult times right now due to their sacrifice for the country that they love. People like you are what makes the sacrifices worth while.
Thank you from the bottoms our our hearts.
Sincerely,
SSG John, Mollie, Brittany & Xander Borders
