It’s coming real soon! I am looking for people in the media or affiliates to contact me. I will do my best to accommodate an ARC to those who request one.
The purpose is to review, provide feedback and possibly be quoted in the book.
Have you support a troop lately? Lisa Martin from Soldiers’ Angels has emailed me and asked if I could post this. I think this is a wonderful projecr the Soldiers’ Angels have come up with.
Our troops need a holiday surprise. Gone for another year, we need to send them some Holiday cheer. We are starting our 2nd Annual Stockings for Troops Campaign.We would like for all of the men and women in the military to know that they are not forgotten this holiday season. Please help by donating a stocking and an AT&T phone card so all our military members may call home and share the holidays with their families.
Thousands of Angels Seeking Help with Getting Holiday Stockings for the Troops
Pasadena, CA (PRWEB) October 6, 2005 — The Holiday Season is not far away and thousands of America’s bravest men and women who are standing watch over our freedom will not be home to share this special time of year with their families and friends. Sadly, there are many other deployed soldiers who have no family to send them a package or even a card.
Soldiers’ Angels, an all-volunteer non-profit organization that provides support to deployed soldiers and wounded soldiers as well as their families, is hard at work on their annual Holidays For Heroes stocking drive, where stockings stuffed with small but welcomed items are sent to soldiers who are deployed in the Middle East combat areas and hospital units.
Cash donations are urgently needed to purchase supplies as well as to help with shipping the stockings to the Middle East. Also needed are Holiday Stockings (homemade with special decorations and messages are wonderful, store bought is also great) as well as the little presents to stuff inside such as:
- Individual packets of hot chocolate, cider or hot soup mix…
- Candy (bite sized, individually wrapped, all kinds)
- AT&T Phone Cards (asking for this brand because it works in the Middle East area)
- Hand held games (playing cards, battery games with batteries, please)
- Small puzzle books
- Miniature Menorah
- Small, signed Holiday cards from you and your families simply addressed to “Soldier” or “Hero.” Homemade Cards are Welcome! Be sure to enclose your name and address.
This is the perfect project for a church, school, club, business, family or for any group to get involved and to participate!
