WHY IT MATTERS
Every dollar raised goes to the Special Liberty Project, a nonprofit on a mountain farm just outside Franklin. We hold free retreats for Gold Star and Veteran families, including retreats for women who lost their husbands to suicide after they came home from service. Not one family is ever handed a bill, and afternoons like this one are what makes that possible.
