Tina , shield of victory . I'd like to

00:03.529 --> 00:05.751
take a moment to talk to you about army

00:05.751 --> 00:08.689
emergency relief . Last week we kicked

00:08.689 --> 00:11.649
off our annual campaign . It is

00:11.649 --> 00:14.409
extremely important for soldiers to be

00:14.409 --> 00:16.799
aware of what army emergency relief can

00:16.799 --> 00:19.739
do for them . And how much of a help it

00:19.739 --> 00:23.100
is to our soldiers . Last year in 2024 ,

00:23.659 --> 00:27.579
over $200,000 was donated to soldiers

00:27.579 --> 00:30.020
in the Ansbach community , and nearly

00:30.020 --> 00:33.540
$94,000 was donated to soldiers in the

00:33.540 --> 00:36.020
Ryland Falls community . I have seen

00:36.020 --> 00:39.250
over the years how this money directly

00:39.250 --> 00:41.306
benefits soldiers when they're going

00:41.306 --> 00:43.306
through the most difficult and hard

00:43.306 --> 00:45.680
times . I ask that each one of you

00:46.369 --> 00:48.313
consider giving whatever amount of

00:48.313 --> 00:50.202
money you can , whatever you feel

00:50.202 --> 00:52.147
comfortable with , to AER . It's a

00:52.147 --> 00:54.258
great program and it really does help

00:54.258 --> 00:54.560
soldiers out .
