Default Support our Troops!!!

Wow great responses on this thread! I'm so happy that we are finding many ways to help those that are helping us.

Our Cubscout Pack has taken this on as one of our service projects. We will be collecting items on Dec 2nd - hoping for 25 of the flat rate boxes full! We found a local unit to support with 25 service members. The hardest part is getting enough money for postage. I'm planning to hit the local businesses this week asking for stamps.

If you are sending boxes, don't forget they can use small holiday decorations. Handmade decorations are great! Our scouts will be making holiday paper balls and we'll add an eyelet so they can be strung together like garland. Don't forget they would appreciate unused greeting cards so they can send holiday wishes to their family too.


Also, I'm sending out an envie of coupons to Valerie today. Pretty big one, hope it has much they can use. I'll be getting another ready next week when my friends bring me their unused ones again. Anyone else have a specific contact to send coupons too, please post or email me privately.
