USO-Metro
October 7, 2009
Washington, D.C. - VT Group
hosted "Pulling for the Troops," a pull-up contest that raised
$3,375 to support USO of Metropolitan Washington (USO-Metro)
programs and services for troops and their families. The contest
was held at VT Group's booth during the Association of the United
States Army (AUSA) conference on October 5th and
6th. Conference participants were challenged to
complete as many pull-ups as they could. With each pull-up,
VT Group donated $2.50 to USO-Metro, and a grand total of
1,350 pull-ups were completed.
Cheryl Hall, USO-Metro's chief operating
officer, accepted the check and thanked VT Group for their
donation, "This was truly a creative and fun way to show support
for our troops and their families. On behalf of USO-Metro I want to
thank VT Group and all the participants who took the
challenge."
