Nice job on the video Debbie!

I hope this video raises awareness of the Veteran Aid Benefit-->maybe it will help on a national basis as well...

I also hope that your users will financially support all of the extremely hard work you do...your dedication to this project is amazing!  I have never found any forum that begins to match the usefulness of this forum...truly an incredible resource for us all to use...thank you.

I also like how you changed the "suggested donation" to $11.12. What a great reminder for folks to contribute in 2012..even if they have given in 2011...

Again, thank you for all you do!

Thank you...thank you!

This is a huge responsibility that I could have never imagined would have come about when I launched the site 6 years ago.  Could never imagined I would go to Washington to meet with Senators and the Veterans' Senate Committee, or try to get a veteran's bill before Congress.

The site and its following at this point is massive.  We average 40,000+ first time visitors to the site each month.  We have almost 3,000 members here on the forums, so donations are so greatly appreciated to offset the costs of running and maintaining all that is associated with this mission.

Anyone familiar with my story knows how personal this is for me, and to that point, I will continue to pay the expenses, continue to go to Washington and fight for what I believe is the honorable thing to do.
