We want to thank the citizens of Canyon Creek for their donation of left over Halloween candy. We use candy as packing peanuts in the care packages we send to our troops serving overseas. The soldiers will be excited to get the candy as an extra treat along the other goodies in the care packages.

Santander Consumer USA Volunteer Day 2024

Some great volunteers from Santander Consumer USA came to our warehouse on Wednesday, November 6, 2024 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. Also, they donated funds to help with the shipping costs. 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 Note and Photos for Halloween Care Packages

Here is a note, along with some pictures, from a unit that received the Halloween care packages we sent last month. It looks like they have set up a spot where the soldiers can come and pick up the items they need. Our care packages contain everything from food, snacks and toiletries to decorations and little fun items to help brighten their day.

Hi Nancy,

Here are some of the pictures we got from the last batch. Please let me know if you have any suggestions. 

Thank you again for everything. You’ve been a fantastic donor. We couldn’t have asked for better. 

Thank you,

Heather
