Welcome to Project SOS! This site is designed to help you learn about and to gain a better understanding of what Project SOS is and what it does.
It is our hope that you will continue to embrace this project as it evolves its mission from supporting our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan to focusing on providing much needed support and services to those in need in our local area.
On Friday, September 2nd, Project SOS sponsored by The Rotary Club of The Villages delivered an electric wheelchair to Viet Nam Veteran Sgt James Kuhn who served in the US Air Force.
Sgt Kuhn was restricted to a conventional wheelchair which he could no longer operate due to a loss of mobility in several of his limbs.
The request for an electric wheelchair was made by the facility administrator, and Project SOS was able to respond with in one week.
His Daughter was there with him when the chair was presented, and it was quite an emotional event. Also present where Richard Simpson, Commander of The Villages Veterans Park, and Larry and Linda Fullington who package and prepare shipments for Project SOS.
