DONATION DRIVE FOR WOUNDED VETERANS & FAMILIES AT WRAMC
The GEWA Art of Living Club is collecting items for wounded soldiers and their families who are staying at the Mologne House at the Walter Reed Army Medical Center (WRAMC). These soldiers and their families are often there for months, and sometimes more than a year. Spouses and children, or parents, stay in residence with their wounded loved ones, and they often do not have, or find it difficult, to get basic needs including cooked meals on the weekends. In addition to non-perishable food items, we collect items for the children such as games, toys, DVD videos, etc. and for the adults to help them feel more comfortable and less-stressed. Look for the yellow signs marking a drop-off location or call Mary Hunter at x6-6875 to get a list of suggested donation items and drop-off places around the Center.
