Homes for Our Troops

Working as a reporter, every so often you c

an get away from the normal stuff and can cover something really worthwhile. 

This past week was the groundbreaking ceremony for a new home for Cpl. VisnuGonzalez.  Under the guidance of Homes for Our troops, a national non-profit that builds homes for soldiers suffering from disabilities stemming from service related injuries, a plot of land was purchased in my home town. Soon construction will start on Cpl. Gonzalez's new home, free of charge to him and his family.

It's humbling when dealing with personal problems and everyday stress to encounter something like this and I appreciate being able to share the story.

And for good measure here is the first article I wrote about this prior to the groundbreaking.
