Hello, how is everybody? We are doing okay, I guess (really, we’re blessed, thanks to you all). I hope you haven’t sent anything yet or if you are going to send anything. We are hurting on the body washes that you all send (we’re out). Also eye drops, medicated lip balm (carmex in a chap stick style), and calling cards (we don’t have as much free dialing access anymore) ... Whatever else that you think of (that is if you send anything), just send it on. We love ya’ll and we thank ya’ll very much. God bless and be good.

Thank you for the boxes that you sent. I bet it was a fun packing party :) ... The boxes all arrived just in time for Labor Day and we distributed them at the cook out we had here to celebrate. The water balloons from the previous shipment came in handy for entertainment (we soaked our fears leader COL C) in good fun :)
Thanks! Sarah

You folks are the BEST! The weather is getting nicer. Pretty soon it will be cold! I cannot say this enough, but thank you and the Airborne Angel Cadets for keeping us in your thoughts and prayers.
Very Respectfully, Mario

"My marine friend, Robert C, just got home from Afgh. last week. His mom e-mailed me and said that Rob said that our packages were "the best they got!" They loved the DD (Dunkin Donuts) coffee, cups and the tortilla chips".
How can you help our nonprofit send care packages to some of the most remote of the roughly 150,000 U.S. military troops serving overseas in 2024?
