In June of 2012, on his fourth tour of duty in Afghanistan, Sgt. Erich Ellis, US Marine stepped upon an Improvised Explosive Device (“IED”) while on a MARSOC (“United States Marine Corps Forces Special Operations Command”) deployment. Resulting in the amputation of his right leg from the knee down, Ellis underwent ten surgeries within the first 30 days of his injury. Embodying the characteristics of a true American hero, Ellis was awarded the Purple Heart for his sacrifice and courageous service. As team leader of the project, RE/MAX DFW Associates is pleased to announce Sgt. Erich Ellis as the latest recipient of the Texas Sentinel Foundation, Mortgage-Free Home, in the North DFW area. RE/MAX DFW Associates Frisco Office Manager, Mal Smith notes, “We can never repay these severely injured young men and women returning from Iraq and Afghanistan. However, we can show our appreciation for their sacrifice by assisting them on the path to a mortgage free, fully furnished home through donations to the Texas Sentinels Foundation.” Ways to help: the Texas Sentinels Foundation is designed to allow everyone the opportunity to give back to those who have given so much. The homes and aid provided would not be possible without the support of many individuals and businesses. In 2013, TSF contributed more than $1.2 million to wounded warriors and their families and awarded 5 new mortgage-free, debt-free, ADA compliant, fully furnished homes to Texas-based wounded veterans. Means of contribution include, but are not limited to, providing financial and spiritual counseling, forging partnerships with land developers, builders and architects, coordinating fundraiser events, and procuring donations from local businesses. The Texas Sentinels Foundation is a 501(c)3 organization and all donations are tax deductible. For additional information on how to help, please visit www.texassentinels.org.
