Ms. Kelly Kowall, CEO and President of the nonprofit, My Warriors Place (MWP), received a MOAA Community grant award for $1950 in recognition for the enhancement of the quality of life programs and services that MWP provides to military Veterans in the Tampa Bay area.
Kelly introduced a new program starting up this fall, called the 82ND COMPASS PROGRAM, designed to give Veterans a road map and some directions to be able to leave the fight within and integrate back into civilization. This 6-month program teaches resilience that over time will help the veteran bounce back strong! This is free for any 82nd Veteran.
