On September 20, 2008, DCI Group partnered with the Armed Forces Foundation to provide transportation for a group of wounded veterans as they attended a Washington Nationals game at Nationals Park in Washington, D.C. The soldiers, who are recuperating at Walter Reed Army Medical Center, were also sponsored by a local restaurant where they ate a prior to the game.
As the veterans watched from President’s Club seats directly behind home plate, they were honored with a standing ovation and a welcome home announcement during the bottom of the third inning.
Through a multitude of programs the Armed Forces Foundation assists military families with utilities and rent; hotel and travel costs; holiday gifts for military children; and therapeutic recreational activities. The Armed Forces Foundation has been recognized by the President of the United States, the Department of Defense, the Department of Veterans Affairs, the Department of Education and the Department of Energy for its dedication to America’s Service Members.
DCI Group is proud to support the Armed Forces Foundation. We welcome home the soldiers and thank them for their service.
