2 Overview About the Heartland 4 Heroes/ThanksUSA Golf Tournament: The Second Annual Heartland 4 Heroes/ThanksUSA Golf Tournament will take place on Monday, April 7, 2014, at the Governors Club in Brentwood, Tennessee. The inaugural tournament took place on March 25, 2013, and raised $15,000 for Heartland 4 Heroes/ThanksUSA Scholarships. Those in attendance included corporate sponsors, local businesses and the families of the 101 st Airborne Division from US Army Fort Campbell. About the Heartland 4 Heroes/ThanksUSA Scholarships: All the proceeds raised at the Heartland 4 Heroes/ThanksUSA Tournament will go towards Heartland 4 Heroes/ThanksUSA scholarships that will be awarded to the families of the 101 st Airborne Division.

3 In 2005, Laura Gomez-Clinton learned that her husband, SSG Juan Hernandez, had been injured while serving in Iraq. She spent the next two years by his side as he recovered at Walter Reed Army Medical Center. Though his physical wounds eventually healed, SSG Hernandez could not overcome his PTSD. He passed away in October 2009, leaving Laura to raise their children, Abby and Aaron. Laura was suddenly a 26-year-old widow with two young children. She took the time to mourn, but quickly realized that she needed to take control of her life and provide for her children. She thought about the care and attention that her husband had received from the nursing staff at Walter Reed and decided that she, too, could offer that support to others. In 2010, Laura enrolled in Emory University. With the assistance of a $3,000 Heartland 4 Heroes (AGT)/ThanksUSA Scholarship, Laura is just a few months away from completing her Nursing degree. This May, she will graduate from Emory University Nell Hodgson Woodruff School of Nursing with her BSN. Laura has excelled academically and has already been offered full-time employment in the ER and OR departments of Spalding Regional Hospital. She says, The hardest part is behind me. I am so proud of my husband s service and I know that he would be proud of what I have accomplished for our family. Knowing that I have the support of this scholarship means so much to me. Thank you!
