We got an email recently from a patriot and friend who is also a member of the Patriot Guard Riders, Melanie Warwick, that I would like to share. Hopefully, there is someone within our readership that is in the area and able to lend a hand (or knows someone who can):

Thank you so much for your support of Homes for Our Troops and the Veterans we serve. In the past few years we have grown by leaps and bounds and it is in thanks to you. To date we have built 16 homes and have 20 more in various stages of construction all over the country. We have several corporate and repeat sponsors that help to make it so much easier to give to the Veterans who have given so much for us.

We are currently working on a home for SPC Fair in Coraopolis, Pa. If you are a licensed tradesman / woman we would love to have your help. Please reply to this [request using the contact information below] and tell me what you are interested in. If you are a general volunteer and would like to help please reply to this email and I will put you on the list for our “volunteer days” which usually take place at the end of the project.

Here is Melanie’s contact information in case you can help:

The Patriot Guard will look for general volunteers to participate in a Build Brigade sometime to be announced in October or November.
