On behalf of Veterans Helping Veterans & Others, welcome to our Annual Poster Contest. We have some great gifts and prizes again this year to give away. Last year our theme was "FREEDOM IS NOT FREE", and boy did we have some tough choices to make before we found the winners. Everyone done such a great job. This year our them is, "WHAT MAKES ME A CHAMPION." In order to have the freedom we have here at home in America, we have had to make some great sacrifices. Some has even had to give their lives so we can have the freedom we have today. One brave young man who give his life for us was named Jonathan Etterling. He was a star food ball player for the Wheelersburg Pirates. He gave his life at an early age of 22 while serving in Iraq as a Marine. Jonathan was a Champion in every since of the word. He was in a class just like yours. At an early age he knew what makes a champion. He set a goal that he wanted to reach and he worked hard to get there. He knew he had to get good grades, be on his best behavior, be active in school and stay away from things that could cause him problems. Jonathan was a faithful member of his uncle's church and took part it the activities. He read his Bible and encouraged others to do the same. One of the things that Jonathan thought would make him a champion was to one day be a soldier in the military. He worked hard in school and done all the things he needed to do and when graduated high school, he joined the United States Marines. Veterans Helping Veterans & Others is full of champions. They work hard to see that homeless, needy veterans & others receive the help they so much deserve and need. We look forward to receiving your application so you can take part in this years contest. Be sure to read the instructions and rules so you don't loose out. God bless and have a God day. Remember our troops! |
