I'm hoping some of you might be willing to help with this project. My husband and I decided to give it a go and I've been talking with Sgt. Winters. He's going to introduce us to a young man from Plaquemine who was injured by an IED last year when he was 19 and is a double amputee. We're going to get him fishing again and just get him outdoors. It's just a small way to give back to the men and women who give so much for us. Please consider it:
Wounded Warrior Project
Ladies and gentlemen of South Louisiana, I am posting this to make you aware of a great charity that maybe most of you have heard of but never knew how to get involved. It's the Wounded Warrior Project (WWP), a non-profit organization that helps support our wounded service members and families of Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom. Let me tell you a little about myself, I am Sgt. Winters, Justin. I am an active duty United States Marine and a member of WWP. I am originally from Plaquemine Louisiana down in Iberville Parish. Also currently deployed again to Afghanistan.
Most people think you have to make monetary donations to charites. This is false with WWP. There are many ways to contribute to the cause. Something just as simple as taking a Veteran fishing! Now I grew up in south Louisiana and I have expirenced the Sportsmans Paradise in full force. But just getting to know some of these young veterans and hearing their stories may even brighten up your lives. If you are intersted in participating just send me an email and I will do whatever I can to make this happen. My email is:
