Project Valor-IT
UPDATED (and pushed to the top): Army pulls ahead, and the Navy is desperate!
Listen up soldiers: For a $25 donation to the Army team, I promise not to send you a photo of me, taken upon waking, before that first cup of coffee.
Donate now! Don't take any chances!
A thousand words on why this is important:

It was a no-brainer to support Soldiers' Angels' Project Valor-IT, but which team to join, that took a little thought. About a half a second...
GO ARMY!!
Blackfive is the Army team leader. Here's what the project is all about:
Project Valour-IT, in memory of SFC William V. Ziegenfuss, provides voice-controlled software and laptop computers to wounded Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen and Marines recovering from hand and arm injuries or amputations at major military medical centers. Operating laptops by speaking into a microphone, our wounded heroes are able to send and receive messages from friends and loved ones, surf the 'Net, and communicate with buddies still in the field without having to press a key or move a mouse. The experience of CPT Charles "Chuck" Ziegenfuss, a partner in the project who suffered hand wounds while serving in Iraq, illustrates how important this voice-controlled software can be to a wounded servicemember's recovery.
But the sad news is, as I post this, the NAVY is $2,055.01 ahead of the ARMY. Click on the "make a donation" button below to change that sad state of affairs.
