I will never shop at Target again.

I got this off another site.

____________________________________________

I got this in a email and thought all who support our troops and are currently serving should read.

We asked our local Target store to be a sponsor of the Vietnam
Veterans' Memorial Wall during our spring recognition event. We
received back a reply from Target management that "veterans do not meet our
area of giving". We only donate to the areas of the arts, social actions, gay
and lesbian causes, and education."

My thought: If the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall and veterans in general, do
not meet their donation criteria, something is wrong at Target.

We were not asking for thousands of dollars, not even hundreds, but simply
sponsorship of an endorsement for a "memorial remembrance."

As follow-up, I E-mailed the corporate headquarters and their
response was the same.

Personally, I will NOT be purchasing anything at Target Stores
again. If the Vietnam Veteran or Veterans in general do not meet
their area of giving, then why should I, as a Vietnam veteran,
spend my hard earned money in the ir stores?

Please pass this on to as many people as you know.

Sincerely,
Veterans Helping Veterans

PS: Target will also not allow the Marines to
collect for Toys For Tots during the holidays.
