Nice Gesture

People will agree or disagree about the purpose and everything else in this war - or any war for that matter.
Still, let us never, ever forget that there are those that are left behind; family and friends that may never see their loved ones again.

Story:
Our Military Kids Inc. was founded early last year.
The McLean, Va.-based nonprofit group raises money from private donors to give children of deployed National Guard and Reserve troops grants to help pay for extracurricular activities.

Joining a community sports team, signing up for tutoring, enrolling in martial arts classes and taking musical instrument lessons are among the activities the group supports.

The group chose to focus on guard and reservists, because those families can't always take advantage of programs offered on local military bases.
