Newman's Own Award accepted by Project Sanctuary

Well...here we are in Washington DC accepting an award from the Newman's Own Foundation. We were honored at a reception at the Marine Commandant's house on Tuesday evening followed Wednesday afternoon by an awards ceremony at the Pentagon's Hall of Hero's. I feel honored to be here with Heather, Marci and Blake, to recieve a grant to help more military families. Project Sanctuary's goal is to help these families have time to reconnect and many times mend their relationships as a whole. I was impressed and appreciative of the other 8 non-profits that recieved awards as well. Out of 138 applicants, there was only 8 selected for this award. As a military wife myself,it tugs at my heart to know that there really are a lot of people out there who care about the needs of the military family of today. I just want those families to know that for us,the awards are not what keeps us passionate about what we do but instead it is the families themselves!
This award is YOUR award. We recognize the sacrifices you have made to keep our country great. Thank you for showing the rest of us that "doing the right thing" is not lost but actually thriving in America today.

Soldier Home from War - Talks about Project Sanctuary

Letter to a friend ...by Daniel Burge

 
I am back from my retreat with Project Sanctuary. It has been incredible for me and my wife to enjoy the time we had with many other Military families just like us. It is really hard to integrate back into the world after being at war.
 
Project Sanctuary has been incredible!  I cannot believe that they have actually given back to the families.
 
When I signed up for the military I knew that the benefits would be good but when it comes to the families they are really only taken care of medically and for insurance reasons. The military really does not provide the counseling resources that we need and the help that we require emotionally when we come back.
 
After this third tour of mine it has been a little different for us. Most of my enlistment has been during this Global War on Terrorism. When I come back from deployment, you have spent a lot of time with me and my wife. What you don't see is the time that I just don't want to be around people… much less family and friends. You have only seen us at my welcome home party and other parties. Other than that I haven't been around. It is just tough to be integrated back into the world and into our lives again.
 
Project Sanctuary has helped us out tremendously. They provided us with such an amazing environment to reconnect. My wife and I have not had the time we need to readjust to each other until this retreat. It was needed desperately!!!
