These products are very well mastered and if you happen to purchase one of the Cracker Barrel rocking chairs that are dedicated to the men and women in the military with an insignia on them, a portion of the proceeds does go to the Wounded Warrior Project as well. This also shows how committed to being a down home company they actually are.
Almost as prominent in her life as trainings and maybe even a bigger part of it is giving back. Throughout her career, alongside all her awards and trophies, are pictures of her giving her time, efforts, and money to charity. From women's empowerment events to soup kitchens, her charitable list, like her accolades, is impressive. Now, her life is split between her love of life, her grandson, gushing about him any chance she gets, and the Wounded Warrior Project.
Linda Perry, Area Outreach Coordinator for the Wounded Warrior Project, was on hand to accept the check and noted, "This kind of contribution and community effort help raise the spirits of our wounded Iraq and Afghanistan vets, as well as help to fund the programs and services that the Wounded Warrior Project offers to help them to rehabilitate and assimilate back into the civilian world."
Since December 2002, we've supported approximately ONE MILLION deployed U.S. troops with loving care packages and letters from all over the nation. This was made possible only with the help of tens of thousands of generous and patriotic friends in the U.S. and abroad. To date, we've sent more than 117,000 enormous boxes (APPROXIMATELY 70 LBS EACH) and more than 40 million letters and cards from caring citizens. This is the least we can do to show our troops how much we care about them. Our troops need to know that we support and appreciate the sacrifices they make for us, our families, and our future. This is about giving back to those who give all™
