Project We Remember Executive Director Vernon Bagley, shown on left, was invited to the American Express campus in North Phoenix to receive the check on behalf of the organization. The check was presented by Douglas J. Tabish, business leader, American Express. Prior to his career with American Express, Doug served as an Army Ranger.

"We're thrilled to have American Express as our first corporate sponsor of what will soon be known as the American Express House," said Bagley. "With this donation the company has proven it is committed to the well being of the veterans who have given so much for our freedoms."
