Info on care packages

Operation Military Pride, a volunteer organization that assists in sending care packages to troops overseas, has a great guide for sending packags overseas.

We have received a lot of requests from readers that want to send packages to deployed troops, so this should answer a lot of questions people have. You can check out their site at www.operationmilitarypride.org/packages.html. There you’ll find some do’s and don’ts for care packages as well as a list of needed / requested items and even restrictions for various APO zip codes.

It would be fair to say that OMP is “care package central”. Even if you don’t have the time to put together your own package to send, OMP offers ways you can sponsor events or even sponsor an individual package. You can even donate online via Paypal. Take a minute and check them out.

Speaking of care packages… We just heard back from our first recipient of a Jews in Green Channukah package!
