I read about this organization a few years ago when they were just getting off the ground, and thought it was a great idea that solved a couple problems (Veteran employment and lack of qualified watchmakers). I follow them on Facebook and have been watching their progress getting the program and their facility off the ground. I have no personal affiliation with them, but I just donated to them for "Giving Tuesday" and figured I would share the link to their site: http://veteranswatchmakerinitiative.org/
I missed this last year but saw a piece on the news this morning about them. Probably a good idea to bump this up.
I caught this on the news too (Sunday evening). I went to their website. Sounds like a great program and it's really easy to donate a few bucks via the PayPal link they have setup. http://veteranswatchmakerinitiative.org/
