Valour-IT Kicks into High Gear

It’s that time of the year again when all the military blogs come together for a common purpose. It’s a time when pride is swept aside as the other services witness the firepower of this fully ARMED and OPERATIONAL military blog raise money for Soldiers’ Angels’ Project Valour-IT!

For seven years, Project Valour-IT has been supplying voice-controlled and other adaptive laptops to severely wounded heroes who need to stay connected while they recover, or who are building new lives as they transition out of the military. That’s over 6,000 laptops for wounded heroes!

Every week brings more wounded troops home from the battlefield, but donations for Valour-IT are not keeping pace with their needs. To maintain this amazing project, Soldiers’ Angels is holding a very special fundraiser from Independence Day (July 4th) through Labor Day (September 3).

Divided among four “virtual teams” named in honor of U.S. military service branches, the fundraising goal is to bring in at least $100,000 through friendly inter-service rivalry. This amount should be able to provide about 250 laptops for wounded heroes who need an accessible computer to reconnect and build new lives.

We need your help. Team Army must defeat the forces of the dark side (Navy, Air Force, and Marines) and once again prove that their wretched hive of scum and villainy is no match for Team Army!! Please donate now. Ask your employer if they are willing to contribute to the effort as well.
