US Data Corporation Donates Over $2,000 to The Soldiers Project in Honor of Memorial Day
Agoura Hills, CA (PRWEB) July 15, 2014 -- From May 12th to June 6th, US Data Corporation pledged to donate 1% of all retail sales to The Soldiers Project in honor of Memorial Day. As a result of that pledge, US Data was able to make a donation of over $2,000 to the organization, and presented that donation to The Soldiers Project on June 17th, 2014 at the non-profit’s headquarters in North Hollywood, CA. This donation will help in supporting 9/11 Veterans struggling with PTSD and other psychological injuries, as well as their loved ones.
US Data Corporation’s CEO, Erich Kaminsky, was joined by Hollywood actor, Blake Clark, to present the donation to The Soldiers Project. Blake Clark, famous for his stand-up and all-encompassing film career, is a Vietnam veteran himself and a close friend of Erich’s, so The Soldiers Project is a cause very close to his heart. Mr. Clark and US Data Corporation are both thrilled that they could support veterans through this incredible organization.
US Data Corporation has great respect for The Soldiers Project’s devotion to providing free psychological counseling to Veterans who risked their lives in Iraq and Afghanistan post 9/11. Many soldiers who return home are at risk for PTSD and other effects of combat stress and trauma. The mental and emotional consequences of war are far-reaching, and many soldiers struggle with psychological trauma when coming home, often in combination with physical injuries. Every day, 22 Veterans take their own lives. That’s a suicide every 65 minutes. In 2012, more active duty personnel died by their own hand than in combat. US Data hopes to raise awareness around this important issue.
According to the defense department, more than 51,000 service members have been “wounded in action” in Iraq, Afghanistan, or in missions to support the wars. The Soldiers Project exists to help ease the transition and provide soldiers and their families with much-needed support along the way. If you wish to make a donation of your own, please visit The Soldiers Project website at http://www.thesoldiersproject.org. There are also many ways to volunteer if you want to dedicate your time to this inspiring organization. US Data wishes to thank all the customers who made this donation possible.
