Thanks Lucy.  I know you are busy, but I really appreciated your call and personal involvement a few years ago.  Us "mercenary types" actually talk about your personal touch and assistance sometimes-always good.
If you don't mind, I am sending this to a few friends who are similarly qualified.

Dear Lucy:

I heard about your posting on the Roswell United Methodist Church Job Board while I was at church today.  I was excited to hear about it because it has been my aspiration to return to my passion of educating and honing the skills of US soldiers in order for them to become more effective in performing their duties.  I have balanced and cycled my Army career between operational units and training positions and through that have gained knowledge to impart, and the skills to do so.  Additionally, this position sounds very much like my last posting before I retired and I enjoyed that immensely.

Fort Belvoir Job Fair - 24 APR 2014


The Soldiers Project/Sacramento, CA – 5/6/14


Monday, May 5, is Cinco de Mayo, right? Absolutely! So go ahead and toast our neighbors to the south with a salty margarita, but keep in mind that Tuesday, May 6, is really the most important day that week.

It’s the Big Day of Giving, a 24-hour period that gives you a chance to donate where your heart is, to the Sacramento-area non-profit organizations that mean the most to you.

In our case, we hope your donation will go toward The Soldiers Project/Sacramento, to support the work we do -- providing free, confidential mental health services to active-duty military and veterans of the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan and their loved ones.

It will only take five minutes of your time to log onto www.tspsacramento.org and make your donation. By giving between 12:01 a.m. and 11:59 p.m. on May 6, you (and The Soldiers Project/Sacramento) will get little more bang for the buck because every donation will be matched on a prorated basis, making each gift go farther.

Your donation can be as little as $25 or as large as …… $$$$$$ …… well, you get the idea. We welcome all donations, big and small, and promise that every dollar you give stays here in the Sacramento area to help our veteran clients.

The Big DoG’s fundraising goal of $1 million spread among 400 local non-profits is a lofty one, but completely attainable, with your help.

So please mark your calendars for Tuesday, May 6, and again we ask that you forward this message to everyone on your personal email list. Most of the advertising for the Big Day of Giving is being done through the Internet, social media sites and email, so your help is an integral part of getting the word out!

Sincerely,

Becci Angell
