Take just one of those beautiful holiday cards you are mailing to friends and send it to someone who may have nearly given their life to defend your right to do and say what you want, from eating truffles to organizing social protests. Tell them just how much you appreciate them in an often thankless world.
Send your cards to:
A Recovering American Soldier
c/o Walter Reed Army Medical Center
6900 Georgia Avenue NW
Washington, DC 20307-5001
Cost: 44 cents (and the feeling that you have given a really memorable gift this year). Go ahead and splurge and have the kids send one, too.
TWENTY BUCKS
