They are there for us when we need financial backing, promotion of our events, donations for the soldiers and volunteer work. Froggy 107.1, SEFCU, The Town of Wilton, American Legion and VFW of Ballston Spa, Carmine Dio, Dunkin Donuts and many others have made considerable donations, services and time to support OAAS and the troops we serve. It is businesses like this that make charitable organizations work and it makes me proud to call them a great friend to OAAS. Cliff Sequin, Founder

"The Operation Adopt A Soldier/Project Yellow Ribbon Program started in the minds of two men and became a thoughtful deed of many. I, as an elected state representative, can't thank the men and women of this Program enough. I have personally witnessed from my two cousins (Sergeants Roy and Levi Sayward) recently returning from Iraq just how much the contact, gifts and thoughts mean to all. We owe the men and women serving more than can ever be repaid and we owe those who continue to serve with programs like this." Teresa R. Sayward, Assemblywoman 113 AD New York

"Cliff Seguin and the volunteers at Operation Adopt-A-Soldier have dedicated an enormous amount of time and effort to connecting community members with the military men and women serving abroad. I have no doubt that Operation Adopt-A-Soldier has played a vital role in keeping up the morale of the courageous men and women serving abroad. Operation Adopt-A-Soldier lets our military men and women know that they are in our thoughts and hearts and allows us at home a means to assist our soldiers as they fight on all of our behalves." Senator Roy J. McDonald
