Now go over there to the right and click on that Make a Donation button and give even a little to Valour-IT, do you need to know more about why you should, then go read this post by Fbl:

Valour-IT helps recipients realize they can continue to do many of the things they did before; they just have to find different ways of doing them. Having a voice-controlled laptop can jump-start that discovery in the middle of the long and difficult recovery process.
and then this post by Homefront 6:

It's been a rough week. I had every intention of jumping into the Army's effort on behalf of Project Valour-IT with both feet. And then I got the text message while I was at church on Sunday. Our friend had been injured. IED. There was mention of a broken leg and injuries to his hand. He was being prepped for evacuation to Germany.

Valour-IT can and will help these soldiers re-gain their independence, but we need your help. Friends this program is without a doubt the easiest thing you can do to help out our troops after they have been wounded. They gave their all, can’t you spare a couple bucks now to help them regain that one thing we all take for granted….independence.
