I found this on the CL board and thought it looked like something positive for us to participate in. I plan to get involved. We have sent many packages from my Vetarans Admin. One thing the soldiers realy need are sanitary wipes and non parishable foods.
Thank you to all who participate!
Or soldiers need our help!
Someone on the "Laugh Yourself Well" Board posted this and I went to check it out. I have now adopted one sailor and one soldier to support through this program. Please take a second to look at it and consider adopting one of our brave men or women who are fighting for our freedom!!!
Homefront Hugs USA is making a nationwide appeal for Volunteers Today
In this memo - attached- are some flyers you can use that are officially approved by Operation Homefront Hugs for our nationwide appeal . Choose which one you like and we will have more posted soon...as we are still in serious need of volunteers for our troops and families.
PLEASE HELP SPREAD THE WORD any way you can.....
Please remember the greatest GIFT you can give a deployed hero is to say thanks and offer a hug to their loved ones back home and to them at the same time !
We serve all branches deployed anywhere in the world in need of support in this war against terrorism without questions or conditions.
1. When you are assigned a family- you get their hero who is deployed and the family :
* 1 stress relief care package per month to the family and cards or emails
* 2 care packages any size per month with cards or letters to the deployed hero
That is what adopting a family means - unconditional support is needed for both our troops and families....
2. When you are assigned a soldier- it means 2 care packages of any size with a letter per month and a minimum commitment of 3 months in the program- not much to ask when these troops are willing to lay down their lives for us.
Groups,businesses,classrooms.sororities,clubs,neighbors,churches, synagogues,friends can do this together.....or one person can sign up and friends and coworkers can just contribute to the packages as long as confidentiality of the address is respected at all times. Be creative but come join us at Operation Homefront Hugs today. Make it a family project and get the children involved.
Our country needs us and more volunteers willing to sacrifice a bit of time and energy and very little money to share a hug and lift morale of those who serve.
Will you help others answer the call?
Contact us at HomefrontHugsUSA@aol.com - it takes 5 minutes to apply to adopt.
We have been saluted by the Department of Defense and many military family programs worldwide. All applicants are screened and registered and this is a monitored program which ensures quality and success.

Copy and paste this message and email it to all !
We need to stand united now more than ever and meet this need so that our military and their loved ones are not forgotten.
Freedom Endures. Join us and make a difference in your life and that of a deployed hero for a lifetime.
