www.EVTPP.com The East Valley Tea Party has a web site that keeps you informed of current issues, upcoming events
and other political news that you need to know. As Thomas Jefferson said: "Whenever the people
are well-informed, they can be trusted with their own government". You, your neighbors, your friends
and millions like you ARE the government that leads this great nation. It is the government that is of, by and for the
people.
I highly recommend that you get involved. It is not enough to be a 'for the people'
person, you need to be a 'of and by the people' person. the
'of and by' part requires action through involvement; by offering to participate
and support. As Thomas Paine said: "Those who want to reap the benefits
of this great nation must bear the fatigue of supporting it".
I have met and come to know many
of the active people that have helped to create this organization and I consider it my privilege to recommend that you contact
them, support the organization AND know you couldn't work with a more honest and conscientious group. I will warn
you though, I have found that they do have an agenda. In my words, not theirs, here is their agenda:
ADHERENCE TO THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA and THAT ALL MEN
ARE CREATED EQUAL, ENDOWED BY THE CREATOR WITH CERTAIN UNALIENABLE RIGHTS, AMONG THEM, SUCH RIGHTS AS LIFE, LIBERTY AND THE
PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS.
Some might even find this agenda as radical. As for me, I am quite comfortable
around people that believe it, profess it and LIVE it. Volunteer your time and your talents. You
may be the missing piece of the puzzle that helps us to get things right. So, get in touch with them and
tell them that I sent you.
www.VetTix.org - Veteran Tickets Foundation
Every day, in every city, there are events with
empty seats that could be filled by those who served. Veteran Tickets Foundation is a group of veterans who have set
about changing that. "Giving to those who Gave"
is the motto of this non profit organization (all donations are tax deductible). Their mission: To give without prejudice
FREE sport event tickets to all Veterans, Active Duty Service Members and their families as a way of
saying Thank You! Contact them to donate to
the cause. Call 1-888-241-1550 or visit www.VetTix.org. Tell them Rudi sent you!
http://www.CellPhonesForSoldiers.com - Cell Phones for Soldiers
If you support our great military, this is a great way to show it. Donate your old cell phone - they will sell it and
use the proceeds to purchase prepaid calling cards for deployed soldiers to call home. Just to be able to hear a loved one's
voice can do wonders to dissipate the loneliness that many soldiers feel when they are 10,000 miles from home. Don't
have a cell phone to donate? You can also donate money - check out their website for details. I highly recommend this charity.
http://www.computersforsoldiers.org - Computers For Soldiers
Everyone needs to stay
in touch and sometimes they need more than to hear a familiar voice. Sometimes, they need that photo of a new baby,
it's first steps or first birthday cake, a graduation, a wedding or other special times. If they can't be there
to share the moment, then computers are the next best thing. This organization helps those deployed to distant lands,
to keep in touch with loved ones back home through computer technology. Many of our heroes can only dream of having
a decent computer with the software and speed needed. But, thanks to this organization, the dreams are becoming a reality
as they refurbish, recondition and rebuild computers with up-to-date systems to support photos, emails, webcams, DVDs and
so much more. I know the founders, their dedication, commitment and drive. And in my book, this organization is better
than A-OK! Tell them I said so.
A REMINDER FROM RUDI:
Replace
a tear of loneliness with a tear of joy on the face of a soldier, sailor, airman or marine. Let them know you
care. Support these worthy causes. Donate computers, equipment, cell phones, tickets, cash and then
volunteer your God-Given talents and time. GET INVOLVED! When it's about our military
sons and daughters, don't be indifferent; donate and YOU will make a difference. |
