#PurpleUpForMilitaryKids
Leonardo DRS is honored to partner with the Henry M. Jackson Foundation for the Advancement of Military Medicine to support the Month of the Military Child. With your support, we will donate up to $10,000 to HJF in support of creative art therapy, an initiative dedicated to the quality of life and self-esteem of children undergoing various physical and emotional treatments.
