Well, it’s been less than a year since Texas Steakhouse began donating $1 of every Grandma’s shortcake ordered to the Wounded Warrior Project and we have already exceeded $18,000.00!
The program began with a group of veterans and brothers who “were moved by the difficult stories of the first wounded service members returning home from Afghanistan and Iraq. They realized then and there that something needed to be done for these brave individuals beyond the brass bands and ticker tape parades. “
Wounded Warrior offers a variety of services to soldiers and their families from counseling and coping services to “peer mentoring,” designed to help the wounded know what is possible and see the successes of other fellow soldiers who have faced similar challenges. And they do so much more. http://www.woundedwarriorproject.org
So, the next time you are in Texas Steakhouse, save room for our Strawberry Shortcake. It’s a great treat this time of year and an easy way to thank and support those who continue to fight for our freedom and safety.
