The People of Bondurant Rock!

Now that I am completely rested from the craziness of this weekend, I wanted to share the good news with all of you. The good people of Bondurant, IA raised nearly $7,000 for the Coalition to Salute America's Heroes on Friday night! We had a great support from the local media, too, as all four TV stations came out to cover the event. Watch stories from WOI (click on the link "banding together" and WHO.

Thank you to all of you who contributed and volunteered. I've found my calling helping folks around the country help my fellow brothers and sisters in arms, so I have issued a challenge to our spokespeople to organize similar events in their hometowns. We'll see who takes me up on that. More on that to come .... ;-)

Until next time,
Donny

Thanks Bondurant, IA!

This is just a great example of how one conversation can spark an entire community to take action. I had a conversation with my chiropractor one day about my involvement with the Coalition. She told me that she knew some people in the area who might want to raise some money. Now, here we are a few months later and one of the largest fundraising events for area veterans is just around the corner.

This Friday, in partnership with the Bondurant Chamber of Commerce, we are holding a dinner and auction to help local veterans.

Thanks to everyone who is helping to put this together ... it's gonna be a great event! More to come next week.
