We told you before about the awesome organization called Send Santa to the Troops. They collect items to send to our active duty military personnel stationed overseas, sending them out in time for them to receive them for Christmas.
They have one final push on this weekend to collect as many donated items as they can before they pack up the boxes on 11/25. (They need help doing that too, if you are available).
Please, please check your couponing stockpile and donate items if you can. This is an easy way to help out the community. They are collecting items at various local spots this weekend:
We found these items in our stockpile that we are donating:
toothpaste
toothbrushes
feminine hygiene products
hair gel
lip balm
lotion
floss
cough drops
protein bars
nasal spray
Check the Send Santa to the Troops Facebook page for a list of items they need. You can also make a monetary donation to help cover the cost of shipping. And if you know of a soldier that should receive a care package, you can also turn their name and address in.
Helping out feels good – don’t miss your chance to spread a little cheer this holiday season!
