About A Million Thanks
A Million Thanks was founded in 2004 by Shauna Fleming when she was a freshman in high school. Her goal was to collect one million cards and letters of appreciation for U.S. military stationed around the world. In just six months, Fleming reached her goal and was invited to present the one-millionth letter to President Bush in the Oval Office. Since then, the organization has collected almost 10 million cards and letters for our troops. A Million Thanks has expanded to also include granting wishes of injured veterans and providing higher education scholarships to children of fallen military.
