Hope you can join us for this month’s Military Appreciation Monday dinner on December 10th at El Tio Tex-Mex in Great Falls. We will be hosting Thanks USA, an organization that provides need-based college, technical and vocational school scholarships for children and spouses of U.S. military personnel. Some of you may remember sisters Kelsi and Rachel Okun of McLean from past dinners. Thanks USA was started in 2006 by the two when they were ten and eight respectively. Since it was founded the organization has awarded over 3,500 scholarships totaling almost $10 million.
If you can make it out, please be sure to call El Tio Tex-Mex in Great Falls at (703) 272-7718and make a reservation for either the 5:30 or 7:30 seating. For those of you not familiar with how the dinners work, you simply come, order off the menu and enjoy a great dinner. The Bob Nelson Team and our cosponsors each make a donation based on ten percent of your total tab for the evening. In addition we will be selling raffle tickets as a way to arrange additional funds.
A special thanks to all our recent cosponsors: Black Family; Bozell Family; Clark Family; Copito Family; Liz Foley; Grossman Family; Kirkwood Family; Kuzmick Family; Morissette Family; Moxley Family; Nelson Family; Mannix Family; Parisot Family; Ramsey Family; Wolverton Family; Woodward Family; Young Family; Al’s Towing and Storage; AOG Wealth Management; Dr. Basil Maghak; Double Eagle Title; Dr. Gary Kaihara, DDS; Great Falls Creamery; Gil Lunsford, GMH Mortgage Services; and of course The Old Brogue.
With everyone’s support last month, we raised slightly more than $25,000 to help Stop Soldier Suicide! Our best ever.
