The Airborne Angel Cadets of Texas and some great volunteers from the National Association of Catering & Event Planners (NACE) packed 160 care packages totaling over $2200 in shipping costs for the U.S. Military troops stationed overseas at our packing party on Sunday, May 5, 2019. These care packages will be shipped to Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen and Marines in Afghanistan, Iraq, Africa and the Mideast. The care packages were packed with toiletries, snacks, microwavable meals and notes from supporters. The theme for this packing party was "Beat the Heat", so the boxes also contained water guns, small pools plus other fun items to help survive the heat.
Here are a few pictures from the event:
