Sellers, an officer of the Signal Hill chapter, generously donated a portion of her book sales to Honor Flight-Chicago, an organization that sends Chicago area WWII Veterans to Washington, D.C., to see firsthand the WWII War Memorial created in their honor.<\/p>\n
“I recently became a volunteer Guardian for Honor Flight-Chicago and hope I am called to travel with the veterans to Washington, D.C.,” Sellers states, “I care so much for our veterans and will continue in my efforts to help raise money for Honor Flight.”<\/p>\n
The cost to send one veteran to Washington. D.C., is approximately $500. Through the book sales and additional chapter fundraising, the Signal Hill Chapter has raised over $1,650 for Honor Flight-Chicago. You can meet Sellers in person at the Barrington Area Library from 3:30-5 p.m. Saturday, March 13, during a presentation and book signing event.<\/p>\n
The Signal Hill Chapter of the National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution (NSDAR) is a nonprofit, nonpolitical, volunteer women’s service organization dedicated to promoting patriotism, preserving American history and securing America’s future through better education for children.
