Wounded War Veteran Threatened With Foreclosure Receives Help

Donors have come to the aid of Daniel Foster, the 23-year-old wounded Army veteran who holds a Purple Heart and Silver Star but was facing foreclosure because he couldn't get his veterans benefits.
One donor, who asked to remain anonymous, wrote a check for $12,000, the amount Foster and his disabled father Rex Foster owe for delinquent mortgage payments for the family home in Costa Mesa. Lenders had threatened to foreclose the day before Thanksgiving.
In addition, other checks have been received for $10, $25, $100 and two checks for $500 since a Voice of OC article on Foster's ordeal was published on Veterans Day, said Deane Tate, president and CEO of the nonprofit Veterans First.
