International: Most outstanding float from outside the United States, CODING FOR VETERANS SOUNDS OF SUCCESS PHOENIX
This story from CTV News is good news for U.S. veterans. Please share and get the news out. This is a proven program that has helped Canadian veterans find a new direction on their return.
One of America's biggest New Year's Day spectacles will have a Canadian touch to start off 2024 — with a "rare" float entry from a Toronto-based not-for-profit in the 135th Rose Parade, which receives an estimated broadcast audience of 50 million viewers around the world.
Coding for Veterans, an organization that provides courses to train current and former military members in the IT sector, submitted an entry this year to join the 2024 parade.
The final product is a nearly 17-metre-long float that is about two-and-a-half storeys in height.
It includes both American and Canadian flags, a giant laptop and military helicopter.
