The Yellow Ribbon Fund
The Yellow Ribbon Fund was created in early 2005 to assist our injured service members and their families while they recuperate at the Walter Reed Army Medical Center and the National Naval Medical Center. Our mission began when the father of an injured Marine introduced two of our volunteers to staff at Walter Reed and Bethesda Naval and they told us what needs were not met by other donors.
In little over three years contributions made through the Yellow Ribbon Fund have provided the following for injured
service members and their families: over 700 free rental cars spanning more than 35,000 days; over 9,000 free taxi rides;
over 2,800 free hotel room nights; 38 families have used our five apartments for almost 3,000 nights; hundreds of free
tickets to sporting games, concerts and plays, and hundreds of lunches, dinners, golf games, duck and goose hunts, fishing
trips, and other activities.
Hundreds Enjoy Mologne House Courtyard Opening
In less than six months, the Mologne House courtyard and patio program has been completed and is now open for use. With several gas grills and 10,000 square feet of beautifully bricked patio, this is a fantastic addition that will help with daily life and rehabilitation for hundreds of injured servicemen and women, and their families. On May 3, a formal opening and ribbon cutting ceremony took place in the Courtyard. Click on this link to read the story of the opening:
