We are a group of four 8th graders who are interested in helping Veterans, especially those who return home and become unable to work and live in poverty and even homelessness. These Veterans are a group of people who really need our help and it’s unfair for them to return home from war and be forgotten. They risked their lives, the possibility of never seeing their family and friends again, and so much more. Since they served our country in battle and now need our help, it’s time for us to step up and fight for our fighters.
