Rebuilding Warriors is local effort to support wounded veterans

We had the opportunity to meet Jeff Anderson, of Rebuilding Warriors, in Madisonville a couple of days ago. Jeff leads a group of men who are devoting their efforts to raising and training service dogs to aide wounded veterans in their recovery and re-entry into civilian life, after giving their all to our country.

To learn more about this important effort, and to offer your support, please go to RebuildingWarriors.com or visit their Facebook page, www.facebook.com/RebuildingWarriors. This is happening in Madisonville, please offer your support to this wonderful outreach.
