 We have a new major player involved with our Homeless Veterans charity.  His name is Termite Watkins.  Termite's life story is already a hit book, and is going to be made into a movie.  Names like Bruce Willis have been tossed around for the lead.  Termite has offered to donate 40% of the book sales for a 15 day period of time to Operation Victor Hotel.
    I need your help.  My goal is to reach 5 million people with this message.  If we sell 500,000 books, it will put 1 million in our pockets to help out our veterans.   So, please send this message to your email lists and any message boards you belong to...
 
http://www.termitewatkins.com is Termite's website to check out his book.  Please send Termite a message and show him some love.   Also, please buy Termite's book.

 I have a small organization in Grand Rapids MI called Operation Victor Hotel. We are small but highly motivated group of musicians and veterans dedicated to helping the 194 homeless veterans in our small city.    Below is a list of veteran friendly business in Grand Rapids.
 
I wanted to share a story with you and the readers of your site. I wish it were a pleasant story. Last weekend we held a benefit for the veterans home in our city. We worked nonstop for six weeks to promote and collect donations for the auction we were having. The first places we hit were the business around town that had the "we support our troops" signs in front of there stores. Of the 50 plus places we went to not one of them would even donate a twenty dollar gift cirtificate to help out our veterans. Of all the radio, TV and newspapers in and around our town only 1 responded to our calls and ran ads for us.  We also plastered the town with over 1000 fliers. The night of the benefit 8 people showed up to enjoy the music and support our veterans. We raised a total of $100 for the night.
For all the grandstanding by people in this country, we are shocked by the indifference of the American people that enjoy the freedoms that our troops have provided for them.
Our troops have slept in trenches, in the snow and rain with bullets and bombs flying around them. It is absolutely unacceptable that they have to return to the lives that they gave up to sleep in the streets again.
We are now a little wiser but our spirit and goals have not been broken. Hang on guys we are on our way.
 
 
Here is a list of veteran friendly business in Grand Rapids.  If you would like to be added to the list let us know. If you use services that one of these business provide show them the love they have shown for our veterans.

Operation Victor Hotel is a charitable organization dedicated to helping homeless veterans get back on their feet. Currently in Grand Rapids there are 194 homeless veterans.   We will be holding our first meeting on October 9th at 7pm at the Lexicon Club (209 Lexington) to discuss the course the organization will take.   We hope to have representives from the Veterans Affairs office, local homeless shelters and some veterans to help us define our path.

If you would like to help, please contact me at papadroog@yahoo.com or my phone number at 616-532-6838 or you can talk to me at the benefit on Saturday.

Thanks Fred
