OUR VISION
This is especially true today, as they shoulder the burden of operations in Afghanistan and Iraq. When they return from their tours of duty, our soldiers need a family-friendly place to rest and recuperate and reintegrate back to civilian life. We are looking for working office space and storage for our project. Please email us at [email protected] if you would like to help. Thank you!
We would like to give them Patriot Hills.Patriot Hills are working towards giving our troops a haven to reconnect with family and enjoy a well-deserved respite from the stress of battle. It will also provide a spectrum of services—from massage to marriage enrichment, stress management to job placement—to smooth the difficult path of reintegration into civilian life.
