Title: Fourth Annual Salute to Our Local Heroes
When: April 27, 2012
Location: California State University, 9001 Stockdale Highway, Bakersfield, CA 93311
Description: On April 28, 2012, the Wounded Heroes Fund (WHF) will hold our Fourth Annual “Salute to Our Local Heroes” event at the wonderful CSUB Amphitheater.

For the past four years, this event has drawn impressive crowds from our local veteran, military, and civilian communities. Those in attendance have enjoyed a terrific program with great food, and entertainment, but many of our attendees tell us that the most rewarding part of this event can often be just the chance to say, "thank you", to our local heroes. This year's event promises to be as fun and fulfilling as ever!

The WHF needs your support of our “Salute to Our Local Heroes” event this year! Any donation is 100% tax deductible for U.S. citizens. To help, please review, fill out, and mail the enclosed donation card. Please make out your donation to:

The Wounded Heroes Fund
3121 Standard St., Bakersfield, CA 93308.
For more information, call: 661-328-8600.
