Ladies and Gent's,
Please get the word out concerning the Green Beret Foundation. The US Army Green Beret's pay a heavy price for what they do and ask nothing in return. Now you can help those wounded Green Berets, directly.
http://www.greenberetfoundation.org/
All of you that have asked to donate to this website and I said "No thank you", now, please go and donate to the Green Beret Foundation.
This is all about "the Green Berets and their families" period.
Please assist us and "Get the word out."
Twitter it, Facebook it, send it to every media outlet you know. Send it to every military blog and website.
Get the word out.
Thanks,
Team Sergeant
Green Beret Foundation
The United States Army Special Forces, commonly known as the Green Berets, produces some of our nation’s finest and most elite warriors. They fight across a broad spectrum of missions in the pursuit of freedom for those oppressed and to protect our nation from those who seek to do us harm. They are known as our country's quiet professionals. The Green Berets have been defending our nation against its enemies throughout the last 5 decades in times of peace and war.
The liberties we enjoy as Americans don’t come without a cost. The Special Forces bear the burden of having the highest number of wounded personnel of any other U.S. Special Operations Forces (SOF) proponent. The Green Beret Foundation serves these quiet professionals who bravely serve the American people and its freedoms.
In an effort to fill the gaps in support left by the boundaries of other organizations, the GBF facilitates assistance to our wounded, ill and injured Special Forces soldiers and their families. We do this by providing resources to ease the burdens of some of the financial hardships that arise in their time of need as well as improving the quality of life for the soldier and the family.

I didn't realize that I had until you said something. Somehow I stumbled onto it doing a google search so I signed in, and posted. I feel that we need to keep the GBF in the forefront of our efforts. Thanks!

It is the most worthy cause I can think of as well and that is why I feel so strongly about supporting the Green Beret Foundation. After, I learned about what they are doing, the more I wanted to do something. By the way folks, I can use all the help I can get out there! Check out the interview and even if you don't want to buy a copy of the book, go to the GBF website and donate something, anything! Sharing the link to the GBF website and Facebook page is another way to support the organization!
Thanks

We are still plugging away trying to raise awareness and money for the Green Beret Foundation through the sale of my book "The Night Eagles Soared"! I could use all the help I can get folks! Those of you who have read it may consider posting a review on here, or in the library link! That would be a great help! Thanks

I was looking for the GBF in the CFC campaign and did not find it.
Does anyone know if there are plans to be included next year?
Thank you in advance!

From what I've heard, the organization hasn't been around long enough to get in there. I've heard that next year; perhaps, next year it will be. Till then you can still go to their site and donate! Click this link: The Green Beret Foundation (http://www.greenberetfoundation.org/)
Best of luck and thanks!

They have a Facebook site as well. Just type Green Beret Foundation into the search bar and it should come up. If you haven't already! :D

I've made a couple donations and even advertised the site on my facebook page.
Jen just sent out note that GBF is now a formal entity with CFC.
To donate through CFC use GBF's number - 64397.
Yes, great organization for our community!

It is a new program under development. I did not think it was public at all yet; it certainly is not operating at this time. I could tell you more, but then . . .

I knew this would be a great program! and it seems I have avoided the "Then..."
I'll let those involved speak to the program but if I can help in some way let me know.
