The MWR Annual Christmas Drawing

Amount raised through November 25, 2001 = $2,403.89

This has truly been a terrible time for all.  The magnitude of the tragedy of September 11, 2001, is overwhelming.  It has also been a time for an unprecedented outpouring of support from people throughout the world.  This drawing will be a chance for members of the Military Watch Resource to contribute and be a part of the relief effort.  This year, all of the proceeds from this drawing will go to the New York Firefighters Disaster Relief Fund.  I hope everyone enters to help the great cause.
