Great idea, L. Hopefully she will reach and exceed her goal and those serving will be richer for it.

An update on Shauna, who will be at Lowe's Motor Speedway in Charlotte, NC on May 30th. Thought some of you might be interested.

Thumbs up

She made it! AND she presented POTUS with the one millionth letter. Saw this great website mentioned on O'Reilly tonight and while browsing came across the article.

Go to http://www.americasupportsyou.mil/ and click on "Kids Take Action".

Yep, this is an old thread but I just saw a commercial featuring this young lady.

Through the month of May there will be boxes in Buick, Pontiac and GMC dealers for Military supporters to drop a card or a note to some of our Men and Women overseas.

The website in the first post of this thread features the national TV commercial, or you can click here: http://www.gmamillionthanks.org/
