Just When You Despair About Young PeopleYou hear
something like this:
The students of Mr. Pallesi’s Leadership Class, at Sierra High School, located in the foothills east of Fresno, CA, loved what Operation Soldier, was currently doing for American’s military.
The students loved the cause so much, they dontated $1100.00 dollars to Operation Soldier, on Friday, May 20th, 2005.
The money was raised through various fund raiser events, that the students held throught the school year. Those events were everything from car washes, to dinners, to selling snacks at a snack stand on campus.
Several students in the Leadership class, related how they have loved ones, and friends that are in the Armed Forces, and are fighting overseas in Iraq or Afghanistan.
Heather Harrelson, a junior at Sierra High School, and student in Mr. Pallasi’s Leadership Class said, “It makes us proud to be able to help those that sacrifice to much, so that we may have what we enjoy everyday.”
On hand to accept the donation from Mr. Pallesi’s Leadership Class was Operation Soldier President, John Bush.John is our old friend from

It is with great honor that Operation Soldier and our Patriot Down Foundation presented Randy and his family with a $1000 contribution, to help offset and alleviate the financial burden of traveling back and forth to Walter Reed.
