Soldiers’ Angels
No matter how you might feel personally or politically about the current war, I’m sure you agree with me when I say that the soldiers involved still deserve our support and appreciation for the way they daily risk their lives.
Soldiers’ Angels is a non-profit volunteer organization that backs such programs as Adopt a Soldier, Blankets of Hope, and many more. They provide a plethora of ways that anyone can easily get involved in supporting the men and women of our armed forces.
GalleryCollection.com has donated 180,000 Personalized Holiday cards to Soldiers’ Angels for the care packages that will be sent to every man and woman serving in Iraq and Afghanistan over the holidays. It’s a small way to thank them for a commitment that will keep them far from family and loved ones during the holiday season.
That got me thinking about Christmas cards and how ever since my daughter as born I have waited longer and longer before getting my card list together and having photos taken to send out. In all honesty, it is not too early to start of my Christmas card project. If I order personalized cards and have a photo done at my favorite studio, the hardest past will be done ahead of time and I can focus on my list and tucking in personal notes.
And, while I am at it, I want to join in on eh sentiment of ‘may no soldier go unloved’ and contribute some gifts to the care package effort.
You know I belong to Soldiers’ Angels, right?
