community members to write letters to service men and women overseas.

What should the letter include?
Make the letter chatty Introduce yourself Talk about things you enjoy doing “Thinking of You” Thanking them for their service
It can be a letter or a card. They do not need to be in envelopes.
Please, no glitter – it causes a mess in it’s travels!
What should our goal be?
We will keep track of how many letters we have collected on our website – so keep a close eye!

local hospital or nursing home (call first!)
