The soldiers have asked for the following:
small board games and or cards, puzzles
Men and Women's Toiletries
DVDS (can be used)
beef jerky
Crystal lite mix, propel mix, gatorade mix ...(the ones to add to water bottles)
Old beanie babies - they hand them out to the kids and they are light to carry
phone cards
tylenol & cold medication
sun block
bug spray with deet
magazines
socks
chap stick
baby wipes
foot powder
coffee
tooth brushes
tooth paste

One of the things all soldiers asked for was letters- substantial letters, full of news, stories, jokes, anything at all. (but please bear in mind they do get alot of letters in the vein of thanking them for their service- while that is why we would like to help them, we feel it would be more interesting to write to them about anything else.)

Another project we participate in is serving food at St. Anne's Soup Kitchen. We appreciate donations of ingredients, such as beef gravy, egg noodles. More to be posted.

We also collect our change to donate to Tatiana in Chile. Please bring your loose change to each meeting!!
