Teresa of Technicalities attended the Milblog conference in DC this past weekend. Check out her blog, she'll be writing more about the conference over the next few days. The first thing she wrote about was Soldier's Angels, an organization whose mission is "to provide aide and comfort to any of the armed forces and their families." Sounds like a wonderful organization, you can donate money online or send $$$ to: Soldiers Angels, 1792 E. Washington Blvd Pasadena, Ca 91104.
You can also Adopt a Soldier, which requires that you "commit to sending a card or letter a week and AT LEAST 1 or 2 care packages a month. This is important to help bring home a healthy hero. Care packages do not have to be expensive and you can put together your own. Duration of adoption is usually 6 to 8 months." This is a concrete and caring way to support our troops serving overseas, one soldier at a time.
Thank you for spreading the word! You're a doll.
