9 Reasons to Thank Military Families for their Service

November 3, 2014

November is the Month of the Military Family.  At United Through Reading, we’re lucky enough to witness these brave families up close and personal all year long.  We get to help them face the challenges of separation, and overcome them.  This month, as United Through Reading celebrates the families we serve — their sacrifices and their  strength — we’re sharing 9 reasons to say thank you to a military family.

1. Because they sacrifice family time to serve our country.
