Woodrow Fryer, currently the acting president of the Augusta Chapter of the Georgia Regional Group and an active pastor and humanitarian known for his love of his country, received the Salute to Service Award this past Wednesday from WJBF-TV in Augusta. The award presentation, along with several photos and a video, was the subject of a news report later that evening. 

A veteran of the Marine Corps who began losing his sight 15 years ago, Woodrow is constantly seeking people in need to help them in any way possible. Fellow BVA member Trena Huff vouched for Woodrow’s acts of kindness in the news report, pointing out his skill at guiding others to sources of assistance when he cannot provide it himself.
