On March 31, 2003, I wrote about Patrick O’Day and the tragedy of his needless death. (His tank plunged off a bridge above the Euphrates River near Nasiriyah, Iraq.)
I just found out that his family has been awarded $13,200 ($1,100 a month for a year) through Mark Cuban’s Fallen Patriot Fund.
The fund seems like a good way for your dollar to go a long way. If I understand correctly (and I am confirming this with Cuban as we speak), donations will not only be matched by Mark Cuban himself (up to $1,000,000), but Bank of America will also match donations from $25 up to $5,000.
(Wow, never thought I’d have a reason to link to them 🙂
