Welcome to "The Purple Clover - Supporting Our Troops and Their Families Year Round".
Hi ! I'm Cat=^..^= and I started a Fund Raiser Group called The Purpple Clover.
I had the honor for 8 wonderful years as a Singer/Performer with Bob Hope's USO Tour Troop out of North Hollywoord, CA. When I became a member of this wonderful group of people Dessert Storm was just breaking ground so we civilians were not allowed to travel overseas, but we did go to every single Military Post in all of CA on a pretty regular basis.
On occassion we traveld to Falan, NV and Bangor, WA for shows many times in a year.
Besides having so much fun entertaining these courageous men and women, I got to see first hand all that they had to go through to keep up the morale and all the moments of missing family and friends.
As wonderful as it all was it was also heartbreaking.
As we did our shows filled with song music comedy and dancing.... it was truely needed for them to have a piece of home and reality there with them.
So..... as through the years since I have always tried to do what I could to help out in whatever way I was able to...... Now... I have "The Purple Clover"
I do Fund Raisers throughout the year for holidays or just because.
I have done Memoril Day Fund Raisers and Holiday Fund Raisers and right now at the present am doing a "Military Mom's" Mother's Day Luncheon Fund Raiser to give recognition to the Military Mom's who seem to never get the recognition they so deserve.
I have had only a few people ask if this was a "scam" these fund raisers... at first I was stunned "I don't do things like that!" was my initial reaction but after seeing several TV show and news moments about how some people do take advantage of the goodness of peoples hearts I could now understand why the question.
I assure you I would NEVER "scam" anyone at ANY time.. and that's the truth! so help me.
I work with a wonderful woman at Selfidge Air National Guard Base in Harrison Twp. MI and ALL donations I get for Supporting Our Troops and Their Families go to her and the donations of money and items are disbursed to our troops as needed and when our troops get deployed from the base they are able to go and pick up items they need to take with them - so ALL my intentions are TRUE and REAL.
If you care to make a donation to help in any way that you can please feel secure that your donation can be made through PayPal at shoyoucare@yahoo.com and know that your donation will truely help our men and women of our military.
I have a video I made all about donations here if you care to see it or you can go to http://youtube.com/coz1952 to view it .
Thank you for your support and God Bless.
