Not sure how to get this going except by asking.... so here goes. We are looking for the following Angels to help us out.
1. If you can would like to send a little cheer to a military family for the upcoming holidays please drop us a line. We need your name, email and if you can sponsor a military family.
2. Would you like to be a pen pal to a solider stationed away from home?
Send us your name and email address.
Uncle Jamie is stationed at Ft Drum NY and I am here in Texas but he is the only solider I know right now so I will be asking him to send me information on some families who will be needing some Angels in their lives for the holidays. He will be deploying to Iraq again in October and so I know he will know some guys and gals who could use a pen pal or two.
If you know of anyone you would like us to add to our list please just email it to us at shweetlettersfromhome@gmail.com
I know that things start off slow and we all have to learn with baby steps so this is my first baby step towards helping our some of those special folks who help keep us safe day in and out. Remember it is not just the guys and gals in the military it is their families too. They give up a whole lot so that WE CAN BE SAFE AND FREE. Let's show all of them how much we care.
What Is Shweet Letters From Home?
Hi I am Kassy and my Uncle Jamie is in the Army. Uncle Jamie is more like my big brother than an uncle because he lived with me and my family when I was younger. Uncle Jamie is a career solider, following in the footsteps of his older brother Orville. Because I know what his family goes through everytime he is deployed or set overseas, I decided that we needed to start Shweet Letters From Home.We are looking for military and reserve's families who need a little extra hand during the holidays. We are also looking for what we call Family Helpers; folks who will help make the holidays special for the families of our deployed soliders.While we are at it, we would also like to match up our deployed men and women with pen pals while they are away. My mom will be helping me with this effort, since I am in Cosmetology School and I work 2 jobs as well. My mom is disabled and deaf but she has taught my sister and I that what little we have, we need to share.This is just a small way for us to say "THANK YOU" to the men and women and their families for the sacrifices they make every single day. We've seen it with our own family members and we want to help others.If you want to help us out by being a pen pal, a family helper or know of a military family or solider send us a note to our EMAIL shweetlettersfromhome@gmail.com.YOU could make a huge difference in a life of a solider or thier family! Remember when you do something GOOD you will recieve 10 fold in return
