The Weeping Widows of Iraq...

Army LTC Linda Holloway, Anbar Province, Iraq, says:

"Millions of men have lost their lives as a result of the many years of war in Iraq (The Iran-Iraq War of 1980-88, the Gulf War of 1991, and United States 2003 Invasion of Iraq). leaving the Iraqi women widows and struggling to take care of their family as best they can in war torn country...This program is designed to empower the weeping widows to take a more active role economically and politically in the rebuilding of not only their local communities but the country as a whole."
