Donations
The $4,000 surplus from our Bench donations to be distributed as follows:
$1,000 to the Fisher House Foundation instead of Wounded Warrior. They report only about a 5%
administration fee. Fisher House Foundation is best known for military comfort homes where veterans’
families can stay at no cost while a loved one is receiving treatment.
$2,600 to Project Newbie to entice new active duty membership. Money to be used in sponsoring
the program pre-reunion 2016. Pairing active duty members with mentors and a possible shoot off.
$400 to March Field Museum, CA for a monitor in our display case.
Please let us know by 1 December 2015 if there are any objections to anything above.
