May is Military Caregiver Appreciation Month!
To celebrate these unsung heroes, IT Cadre supported our friends at the Walter Reed Family Readiness Support group in celebrating these amazing men and women at their annual luncheon at the USO.
We were excited to once again join in with donations and graphic support! Many thanks to our friends at Little Learners Academy in Ashburn, VA for once again donating their popular Family Game Night raffle basket to add to the other raffle donations.
Everyday these caregivers advocate and support with love and dedication to be sure their soldier receives the best care possible 24/7.
Thank you for all you do - you are real life superheroes!

May Is Military Caregiver Appreciation Month when we take a moment to recognize the hard work and sacrifice the non-medical attendee caregivers give to their injured or ill soldier. Most caregivers literally put their life and careers on hold to dedicate themselves to their soldier, sometimes for years before their soldier is ready to care for themselves, for others it could be a lifetime. Caregivers can be spouses, relatives, friends, neighbors or just a good Samaritan that wants to help.

IT Cadre once again supported the Warrior Transition Brigade and the Yellow Ribbon Fund to supply door prize baskets for the Caregiver Appreciation luncheon on May 16th at the USO located at Walter Reed Medical Center. IT Cadre donated a Starbucks, Summer Fun, Lottery Tree, and Spring Accessories baskets, tumblers, and centerpieces. Other local businesses joined our efforts. Zazu, Whitman Associates, Inc., MASE Faith Foundation, Little Learners Academy, and Crown Trophy of Ashburn. All supplying beautiful baskets that brought smiles to the much deserving caregivers. Mary Vance Morrisroe donated a gorgeous flower arrangement basket that was also given to a lucky caregiver.

Food for the luncheon was provided by CAUSE – Comfort for Americas Uniformed Services, other organizations making the event extra special were the Wounded Warrior Project, Operation Homefront, Operation Second Chance, Semper Fi Fund, and Yellow Ribbon Fund. It was our honor to stand with these organizations to recognize these amazing caregivers.
