A little over a year ago, I was introduced to a non-profit organization called The Compass Retreat Center. The organization provides services and activities for the service people and the people who love them. Many of the service men and women they help are reservist who don't receive the same support as active duty military service men and women.
Many of the soldiers are everyday people who were sent on deployment for LONG periods of time and when the return they need support to put their lives back together.
Compass offers retreats for to assist with family bonding with spouses and children. Opportunities to reconnect with their community, counseling and job support services.
The organization is a finalist to receive a $100,000 grant from IKEA. The finalist who receives the most votes will win the grant.
I've had the great opportunity to speak at two of Compass's Family Retreats and lead a planning retreat for their Board of Directors.
I'm asking you to help them by voting daily until December 23rd. This is a great way to not only support a military service person, but more importantly, you're helping support their families.
Thank you!
