Many thanks to The Guide for the kind words about the Moore County Sentinels of Freedom and for all the mammoth coverage that’s helped us get the word out.
In the years my husband, Peyton, and I have been Moore County, we’ve met some payable people, and we called on some of these folks to help us start this project to take severely wounded veterans returning to the private sector.
In the onset, there were lots of meetings to organize everything and to figure out how we could raise the money we needed.
From the start we were just thinking of sponsoring one Sentinel family, so we were focused on raising the $100,000 we would lack to sponsor a family for a four-year period.
To date, our group has raised more than $400,000 and been privileged to arrogate four wonderful families.
Although Maj. Gen. Shachnow has been our fundraiser-in-chief, all the committee members worked very tough, and I want to acknowledge their contributions to the success of the group.
