Topic: Border Care Project - The Difference a Year and a few months make!

Debra will share stories, pictures, and discuss the turn-around from a perspective of the Border Care Project, a labor of love for those who serve our nation at our borders.

Debra Wall has led the Border Care Project, coordinating volunteers and supply donations, supporting our Border Patrol with first aid supplies, medical protective supplies, and also snacks given directly to officers serving our nation at the southern border. Her passion is on campaign, voter registration issues, and border care issues. Along with her fellow Camino Real Republican Women members, they have taken many donated deliveries to the border teams, at a time of low morale for our law-enforcement due to the overwhelming numbers of illegal aliens crossing our border, just a little over a year ago. She feels it is important that this show of support from our Republican community is an important way to support those who protect us. Due to the high rate of infectious diseases at the border, the border service's men and women truly appreciated the first aid and prevention donations. The Border Care Project has been successful as a direct result of our Republican women working together to care for our Frontline Office.

Besides being a past president, and a current member of Camino Real Republican Women, Debra is also a Bexar Chapter DAR member, in the military civilian club of San Antonio. She is an avid constitutionalist! And also a proud graduate of the University of Louisville.

She is a military spouse, with four overseas tours and six statewide assignments with much of her time being devoted to recruiting volunteers. Volunteering in the civilian world, Debra became very active with the Texas Federation of Republican Women. Her service hours were honored over the years, with her work being recognized with past awards, including 3 time Club Volunteer of the Year, TFRW Convention Co-chair, and also being twice honored with the TFRW Tribute to Women Award. As well as being selected as one of the 10 Outstanding Women for TFRW, she was honored to have her former Camino Real club receive the achievement of National and Texas Federation Caring for America Award recipient for her club's work in 2023. By accepting this award along with her club, she attributes the honor to all of the Texas clubs that have supported our United States Border Patrol, Sheriffs, National Guard, and DPS.
