Soldiers Angels July 2009 Bake Sale Results







Last week’s Soldiers Angels bake sale was the effort of more than 30 bakers and helpers. We managed to raise just over ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS to benefit the patients at the Dallas VA hospital. Wow! This was such a great turnout!

I entered my hours of preparation as an independent activity in the American Volunteers site on the Employee Programs page of Jetnet. I called the event “Soldiers Angels Bake Sale.” There is an option to choose veterans/military under type of activity. If everyone would log their hours volunteered to support our military, the combined results could make for some great talking points for Captains Palmersheim and Blankenship, who are responsible for our Veterans Initiatives within American Airlines Corporate Communications. I would encourage everyone who participated to do so – it took a lot of small efforts to make this great effort come together and we want that to be appropriately represented.

Special thanks to the everyone who volunteered their time and energy towards making this effort happen!!! Thanks as well to the CERG and EWD for partnering with us in this effort to support our veterans!

I’m very proud of our team for another job well done!

Sincerely,
