BLUE STAR MOTHERS

No matter how far down you put your head in the sand, our country is at War! Regardless of your political views about the War or the Military, you have the duty to help support the Men and Women who fight for you.  While you are safe and snug at home with your families, selfless Americans are putting their personal lives on hold and risking life and limb so you can go about your daily business.

You can send tax deductible cash contributions or send the troops goods and sundries.  Do your duty.  For more information, visit the Blue Star Mothers website and see how you can help.  Just click on the image and learn how you can get a warm and fuzzy feeling.

Small sizes of the above are best….so they can be shared among more people, and are easier to mail.

……and the snacks….cookies, hard candies, jerky, etc are ok, but some troops ask for healthy snacks…nuts, fruit leather, dried fruit, fruit cups, microwave soups, etc.  microwave popcorn, tuna/crackers snack packs are huge! and of course, cash contributions to help cover postage are always welcome.
