And the donations came rolling in...




During the American Legion's monthly social in March, Isaiah came and addressed the group of US veterans to see if they would be willing to support his project with a donation toward the flagpole renovation and veteran's bench and garden.

After he read through his donation letter request and answered a few questions, the Commander Val Frailey (pictured above) called on members to pas a basket around for donations. Isaiah was very hopeful because from his estimate he would need $646 for the entire project. He was completely blown away when they finished counting the money and informed him that the members' donations was $154. But it didn't stop there, the Legion had decided to write a check for $499 to support his project as well.

The financial support of the American Legion members was humbling knowing that these individuals have sacrificed so much for our country and continue to be so generous with their time, talent, and treasure.  

Other generous corporate donations were received from the following: Costco, Store #1026; Lowe’s, Store #0417; May Day Landscape Supply; Porter Paints, Store #9173; Publix; and Sam’s Club, Store #8120.
