A Rose of Thanks will be at the Vans Warped Tour in Virginia Beach and Charlotte this week! If you are going stop by and say hi!
Charlotte, NC – July 9, 2009 – A Rose of Thanks, a non-profit organization with the goal of sending a Thank You Card every single U.S. Armed Service member in the Gulf Region, will attend two upcoming Vans Warped Tour events with cards for concertgoers to personalize and sign.
At both the Virginia Beach and Charlotte dates (July 22 and 23, respectively), A Rose of Thanks will set up a station in the Non-Profit Area with blank cards, markers and pens so any and all show attendees can personally thank one or more U.S. Armed Service members for defending the U.S. and our families.
“It is because of sacrifices made daily by our troops, and their families, that we are able to live in the greatest country in the world,” said Matthew Hunt, founder of A Rose of Thanks. “If everyone of us took just 10 minutes a month to write a note or send a card, then no service member would ever go without receiving a piece of mail. What’s 10 minutes when these men and women are risking their lives 24/7/365 to defend the freedoms we enjoy everyday?”
Music fans can personalize and sign their own A Rose of Thanks card for the troops at the two following Vans Warped Tour dates:
– July 22, 2009: Virginia Beach, VA – Verizon Wireless Amphitheater
– July 23, 2009: Charlotte, NC – Verizon Wireless Amphitheater
Those not attending the Vans Warped Tour and would still like to send a Thank You Card to U.S. troops can also do so at www.aroseofthanks.org.
