I'm sure that many of you remember this from a few weeks back when I wrote about it the first time, but now the deadline is quickly approaching and the number of letters is not nearly close enough to what it needs to be.
As of this morning, The Bert Show has 40,000 letters. That's only 10% of the letters they need to send to the troops. 10%, absolutely ridiculous.
Is this country really this numb to the idea of our military and the work they are still doing for OUR freedom? Do people really not care anymore? Are we not thankful that every day these men and women sacrifice their time, their lives, the luxuries of home?
I had my office write letters yesterday and we have 70 that we will be sending in on Friday. One of my coworkers actually wrote 20 letters.
If you have 5-10 minutes (and lets face it we all do) please write a letter expressing your thanks to our service members and follow the guidelines below. It only takes a minute and can be such a difference maker in the end.
Deadline is next Friday, so please do this today! Pass this along to all your friends and family too, any person can help! This isn't just an Atlanta project, this is a project for any American, anywhere.
