Merry Christmas in July! ๐โค๏ธ
Taking this moment to humbly reflect on what a huge success our care package collection was this year, and to express our gratitude to those who made it all possible. We wanted to make โyear 10โ the biggest year yet, and itโs safe to sayโฆ mission accomplished, with 110 full packages along with numerous other large boxes & bags overflowing with additional donations!๐ซก
Thank you to our dedicated partners who team up with us year after year to make our collection so impactful and to help make the holiday season a special time for our soldiers abroad even while away from the people and places they love most. Thank you:
