Thank You, Wind Creek Wetumpka
Wind Creek Wetumpka continues to be an amazing and generous supporter of AHERO. This year’s contribution from this highly people-oriented organization bordered on $27,000, presented in a check (shown here) to Al Stuckey – Lee’s dad, affectionately known to all at AHERO as “Pinecone.”
You can see from the look on Pinecone’s face that he is deeply touched by the generosity of spirit that emanates always from his good friends at Wind Creek.
The extraordinary outlay required in order to continue bringing wounded and injured Veterans (and now First Responders) to AHERO’s activities and help them benefit from its programs and resources is a constant reminder to all of why we so appreciate our contributors. When folks like the owners and management of Wind Creek Wetumpka (where patrons often “chip in” from their winnings) show, by making repeat donations, that they understand the huge “nut” AHERO has to crack to get the job done – that is incredibly heartening.
The ”why” of that is pretty obvious: Because it shows that they believe in this all-volunteer-run charitable organization we call AHERO. That they believe in its mission. Which, in turn, is why we continue to thank Wind Creek Wetumpka over and over again for its unfailing support of our Veterans through the years. ~ Dave Glassman Vice President, AHERO Board of Directors
