So often when a soldier is injured and then goes through rehabilitation the first thing they want to do is get back with their group. Unfortunately that is not always possible, it could be due to a major injury or any number of things. http://www.missioncontinues.org/ was designed to help these people out by enabling them to serve their country in other ways.
"The Mission Continues was built on the belief that our returning wounded should be recognized not only for the sacrifices they have made, but for everything they have left to give. We award fellowships to empower wounded and disabled veterans to serve in their communities. In doing so, we send the message: "We still need you." America owes these men and women a great deal, but as a nation, we have much left to learn from them. While injury may have changed the nature of their service, their mission continues, and it is as important as ever".
Anyway check it out I met one of the people involved and I think it's a great cause.
