August 13, 2013/by Lorie Hollabaugh

home base logo1The Band Perry, Cassadee Pope, Big & Rich and many other celebs will perform at Mission Gratitude, a special benefit concert for wounded vets from Iraq and Afghanistan and their families at Boston’s Symphony Hall on Sept. 23. The huge New England benefit will help raise funds for the Red Sox Foundation and Massachusetts General Hospital’s Home Base program.
Home Base helps vets and their families recover from post-traumatic stress and traumatic brain Injury through clinical care, education and research. One in three returning veterans is estimated to experience these invisible wounds of war, and Home Base serves active duty, Guard, Reserve and out-of-uniform veterans throughout New England regardless of their discharge status, insurance, or ability to pay. The program also offers counseling for spouses, children, parents, siblings and girlfriends/boyfriends.
