Care
Packages
- We have an
on-going program to support our troops with
Care
Packages.
A
care package is a box filled with some comfort items that lets
our troops know that we appreciate what they are
doing. This touch of home is tremendous morale boost
for those serving far from home.

Our
“CORPORATE ANGELS PROGRAM” allows each and every corporation to
help in ways that are
unique to them. From having a “Sponsor Care Package Events” to
donating much needed
operating supplies, the spectrum of needed support is full of
possibilities.
It is through corporate generosity that our programs survive and
flourish. Join our Angels
program and your business will be listed on our “CORPORATE
ANGELS” web page, appropriate
signage can be on donated items and press releases may result.
We are flexible and open to
new ventures and relationships. |
