PictureComfort & Care Package
​Good Evening from Afghanistan Jonette,
"I just wanted to thank you so very much for the care packages that you sent me and the guys here. We really appreciate all you do!  Being out at a forward site, it's hard to get to some of the normal day to day items. We created a convenient shop in our office for guys to come and take as they please from the boxes you sent us. We wish you the best and once again thank you so much!"
​
​Platoon Leader, Lonestar Dustoff

​Good Morning Jonette,​
"The wonderful care packages that you sent have arrived and I must say that they are the best that we have received all year.  The Air Force members are absolutely thrilled with the quality and variety of the items that you included.  You have put a smile on many a member's face and brightened the day of so many.  Thank-you so very much for all your hard work on behalf of the deployed air force men and women here at Bagram air field.  Have a fantastic day."
 
Kind Regards,
Postal Officer
Bagram Airfield

From One of our volunteers

I know a lot of people are hesitant to give to charities, but I can tell you that this one is real. I, along with my neighbors and new friends I've meet through this organization, have volunteered with fund raisers. Purse bingo is a huge one. Beautiful designer purses are won! But the main thing I've learned is that our soldiers don't receive many things that we take for granted here at home.  Simple things like socks, candy, lotions, wash clothes, all these things they have to buy for themselves on an income that isn't nearly enough. Their families have to pay and ship the things they need to them. PLEASE take the time to go on the website and just see the story and where and how it started. Very touching and humbling. Holidays for Heroes is one of the best charities you can give to. It's for our soldiers! Men and women. Thank you for your support. 🙏
