Responsibility
I presented yesterday to the LMG Auditors Group in Orlando, FL. Before I came on stage the national company had employees from various regions around the country get up and tell the crowd of 200 what “responsible” projects their team has been working on over the last year. One in particular stood out: the group working with soldiers in Iraq.
The team had opted to sponsor a soldier who doesn’t enjoy the support of any other group back home, including her family of six sisters. The soldier is a 10-yr veteran with 8 yr old son here in the States. She’s a single mom and feels compelled to stay overseas to serve her country. The employees were able to “adopt” this woman through the internet - www.adoptaplatoon.org. They take turns sending weekly letters, care packages and general moral support when no else back home will.
I’ll be the first to admit that my community service track record hovers around non-existent. This lady inspired me to give a little something to those that give some much. I encourage you to do the same.
