In The Fight

FROM BJ 'n Cindy

I am employed at Buildasign.com and we are running a promotion that gives military families a free customizable banner to help welcome home their loved ones returning from overseas. I was wondering if you could offer me any tips or suggestions on who to get in contact with to get the message in the hands of those people that can take advantage of this promotion. If you know anyone who could take advantage of this service then please send them over to www.buildasign.com/Troops
We are giving away 10,000 banners and also donating 15% of proceeds to the DAV.
Thank you very much, any advice is welcome!
Sincerely,
Natalie Kassabian


Welcome Home...
For those that just arrived, Welcome home! For those that have been here before welcome back. We are your hosts, BJ 'n Cindy. We own and operate this site as well as the sister sites.

As a retired Marine couple, we know just how new and puzzling, and sometimes how lonely or difficult it can be to find what you need. That is why we created this network and filled it with all kinds of resources to help you find whatever you may need... and to find one another.

So once again Welcome Home...
