Musical Instrument Gift Day Helps Combat Wounded Veterans

Keller, TX (PRWEB) August 16, 2011

On September 21, 2011, the National Pawnbrokers Association (NPA) is sponsoring its third annual Musical Instrument Gift Day, where pawnbrokers from around the country make generous donations of musical instruments to organizations in need.

This year, NPA is working closely with Wings for Warriors, a non-profit organization whose mission is to provide necessary tools, insights and resources for combat wounded veterans as they go through the recovery process and transition into new realities.

Anthony Ameen, the organizations founder and a combat wounded veteran who served in Afghanistan, stated, My recovery was helped immensely through music therapy by playing the guitar. We are excited to be working with the NPA to deliver the gift of music to help speed the recovery of combat wounded veterans. Visit WingsForWarriors.org to learn how the organization is changing lives.

Now in its third year, Gift Day has donated thousands of musical instruments to charity organizations supporting underprivileged children, families, and veterans. This year, NPA members will donate guitars and other musical instruments used for physical therapy and fun to three leading Army Medical Centers and other related groups.

If you are interested in participating in this years event you can sign up by visiting the Gift Day website GiftDay.org/contact/ and submitting a contact form.
