Support Operation Homefront of Illinois by tweeting

I had the pleasure of meeting internet sage Curt Mercadante at a Jim Ryan fundraiser on Tuesday. Curt has asked me to pass on this message of generosity for Twitter users:

This holiday season, please help us brighten the holidays for the families of military men and women serving overseas.

Operation Homefront of Illinois provides emergency assistance and morale to our troops, to the families they leave behind and to wounded warriors when they return home. While these heroes are risking everything to protect us — the least we can do is help protect their families.

For every person that retweets the following message between now and midnight New Year's Eve -- Merc Strategy Group, LLC will donate $2 to Operation Homefront of Illinois.

All you have to do to help a wounded warrior is re-tweet the message below. It's that simple!

#operationtweetfront Retweet by midnight New Years Eve and @curtmercadante will donate $2, up to $2500, to @OHIllinois. http://bit.ly/5ByT3z
