Lyssa Thames hasn't added a story.
Sergeant First Class (SFC) Simpson has been an active duty Soldier for the US Army for 11 years; He has served in 4 overseas deployments as a combat medic, and also served as an instructor for new recruits. He had planned on being a career soldier and retiring, but life had different plans for him. Due to recent unfortunate events, He has now found himself single, buried in financial debt, and struggling to raise two beautiful children. A continued military career means forfeiting his children, while forfeiting his career leaves him with no means of supporting his children.
We are trying to raise money to help get this very deserving man on his feet in the civilian world. His plans to leave the military on a hardship clause leave him with nothing to show for his honorable service thus far: he is not eligible for any retirement. Donations of any amount are appreciated; Pennies add up to dollars, and dollars add up to even bigger dollars. Our goal of $40,000 will help give SFC Simpson a new choice in life: One that brings this family together for the good.
Please share this story, even if you choose not to donate. There are people out there who can help, and we need to put this story in front of those people. Share with all your friends, let's give this man a new choice! Thank you for the support, and thank you for taking the time to read this.
