Help a Soldier, Personally

Our military men and women make incredible sacrifices of time and life, and put themselves in harm’s way, not just to protect our national freedom, but to protect the freedom of other nations as well.

Every time I reflect on that, I’m amazed at how strong, brave and honorable our military people are – and I always wish I could be of more help to them.

I recently came across Soldiers’ Angels, an organization that can pair you with a soldier to encourage personally.  They verify your identity and ask for a significant commitment (of letters and care packages to be sent) – then give you the address of an armed services member in need of encouragement.

I just “adopted” a Marine who is serving in Iraq and sent off a box of goodies to him.  It’s a very small way of saying “thank you” to people who deserve so much more.   Check it out at: www.soldiersangels.org.

The post office prints special boxes for military shipping with a discount priority flat rate (10.95).  Letters require a normal first-class stamp.

I took 1 st home loans when I was very young and that aided my family very much. Nevertheless, I need the commercial loan once more time.
