Want to help send care packages to the troops in Iraq and Afghanistan?

Nothing says “we support you – and hope you come home soon” like thousands of boxes filled with beef jerky, wet wipes, comic books and phone cards, right?
For the fifth time in two years, Jennie McFarland is organizing a “Support Our Troops Drive” in Larchmont, assembling care packages for soldiers stationed in Iraq and Afghanistan. More than 1,400 packages
have been sent since April 2006, when her husband was serving with the Marines in Iraq (Col. Thomas McFarland is back now); at least four Westchester residents will be among the recipients this time.
“The touching thank you notes we have received back from the troops confirm how important it is to continue to show them that we are thinking of them and that we appreciate their sacrifices,” McFarland said, adding that she is collecting more addresses from local families with loved ones stationed overseas.
Travel-sized donations – no chocolate, large liquids or used items – will be accepted in the basement of St. Augustine’s Church, 18 Cherry Ave., from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. March 16. Financial contributions can help defray the cost of shipping. Volunteers are also welcome to help assemble the boxes and write letters to the troops on the day of the event.
For more information, post a comment on this blog entry (click on the “Comments” link at the bottom of this post) or contact McFarland at jennie.mcfarland@verizon.net.
Who are the four soldiers that are serving overseas that sre from Westchester?
I wouldn’t think that information would or should be posted on a public forum due to the security concerns for not only the soldiers, but the families of those soldiers. As a veteran and the wife of a soldier, I don’t think I would want that information released like this. Just my thoughts…
