HOMETOWN HERO--DONNA CRANSTON

______

HON. BETH VAN DUYNE

in the house of representatives

Friday, September 30, 2022

Ms. VAN DUYNE. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize Donna Cranston of Coppell, Texas as this week's Texas-24 Hometown Hero. Donna's commitment to supporting our veterans has made a great impact on our community.

Donna started an organization called Defenders of Freedom when her son Matt served in Iraq. Matt experienced a lot of action and trauma while serving and came home with severe PTSD, which many veterans across the nation also face. Donna and Defenders of Freedom were able to partner with members of the medical community to treat veterans with brain treatment.

Defenders of Freedom provides donors with the organization they need to support post 9/11 Veterans in their transition to civilian life through emergency financial assistance, morale building programs, and traumatic brain injury treatment.

I thank Donna for the support and care she is sharing with our veterans who have fought to protect us and our Nation. Her contributions and sacrifices do not go unnoticed and the impact she is making on the lives of Texas-24 veterans is immensely appreciated.
