As most American’s enjoy a day of rest and relaxation barbequing with family and friends, let’s not forget why we are celebrate Independence Day. This is a day to give thanks to those who fought and continue to fight for our freedom.

There are countless organizations A. S. Charity Fundraising is so proud to support that focus on providing help to our brave men and women at home and abroad. Just two of those organizations include the Wounded Warrior Project and the Fisher House Program.

The Wounded Warriors project accepts tax-deductible donations that allow them to help injured soldiers returning home to help provide for their families. By donating to this organization you can give a token of your gratitude to our brave American heroes.

The Fisher House Program offers “comfort homes” on military bases or major military grounds to men and women in the military who have to travel far for medical care. This organization allows family members of the military men and women to be right by their sides in their times of need, and also gives them the same comfort of living at home.

May this Fourth of July bring about a feeling of determination and giving in the hearts of all Americans. It is up to all of us to work together, and we must never forget how fortunate we are to have our armed forces secure our freedom.

From all of us here at A. S. Charity Fundraising, we wish you a Happy Independence Day! Enjoy the company of your loved ones and continue supporting our troops!
