Pillow Sewing Day 2025

A few of our amazing Angels, along with some Delta Airlines volunteers, got together on Wednesday, June 18, 2025 to make pillows for our soldiers serving overseas. Many brought their own sewing machines and set to work sewing the items. The volunteers that didn't have a sewing machine spent their time stuffing and pinning the pillows for the sewers. These pillows will be sent to the troops to help make their tours as comfortable as possible.

Here are some pictures of the event:

Santander Consumer USA Volunteer Day June 2025

Some great volunteers from Santander Consumer USA came to our warehouse on Wednesday, June 11, 2025 to help us prepare for our next care package packing party. They taped around 250 boxes and decorated the flaps on the boxes with "love notes" to the soldiers. Their service is greatly appreciated as it saves us time so we can focus on collecting, sorting and preparing the snacks and toiletries for our next packing party.

Thank you Santander Consumer USA for your support.

Here are some photos from the event:

Thank You Letters from the Troops

Here are two letters we received from some soldiers that received the care packages we have sent. The first letter is addressed to Sydney from a solder also named Sydney. It looks like soldier Sydney received a thank you note in a box from a girl named Sydney (we include thank you notes from various people in all our care packages). We don't know who wrote the thank you note, so we are not able to send the soldier's letter on to her. Maybe she will check out this post and will see the letter!

City Electric Supply Donates Items for Our Troops

We want to send a huge thank you to City Electric Supply for their generous donation for our troops serving overseas, They delivered over 300 boxes that contained foot power, sun block, shave cream, lip balm, baby wipes, laundry soap, razors, eye drops, tooth paste, tuna packets plus thank you notes. Also, they contributed funds to help pay for the shipping costs. Our supplies were getting low, so we really appreciate this donation of items which will be included in our care packages.

Memorial Day 2025

Memorial Day is a day of remembrance to honor the sacrifice made by the men and women who have died during their service in the United States military. Memorial Day is a special time to honor America’s history and commemorate the bravery, courage and honor of our troops. Even though Memorial Day is a time to celebrate the freedom we have in America, we should never forget that that very freedom came at the expense of the brave heroes who lost their lives fighting to protect it.
