Many of you already know AGC of America's philanthropic arm, AGC Charities Inc., is undertaking its most ambitious Autodesk Operation Opening Doors project yet. In honor of the association's Centennial Year, AGC Charities is renovating an historic dairy barn to serve as the new national headquarters of the Warrior Canine Connection, a group that works with veterans with invisible wounds to have them train service dogs to help other veterans in need. The process of training the service dogs provides incredible therapeutic value for the veterans with invisible wounds, as this video makes clear.

You can also mail a check, payable to AGC Charities Inc., to: AGC Charities, 2300 Wilson Boulevard, Suite 300, Arlington, VA 22201. And of course, please feel free to contact Brian Turmail at 703-459-0238 or turmailb@agc.org with any questions, to request additional information about the effort or to find out how your firm can be further involved in helping AGC Charities make history this year.
