Let's Say Thanks

As we all settle into the hustle and bustle that is the Holiday Season, let's take some time to remember and appreciate those brave men and women who are protecting us abroad. Many of these individuals will spend the Holiday's away from their families and this is something small we can do to make their season's a little brighter.

So, In support of our Troops, Let's Say Thanks!



Below are some comments service men and women have made after receiving a card:

I hope this day finds you well. I just wanted to say thank you for the wonderful package that Give2TheTroops sent to us. All of the items were very useful and were very much appreciated. Thank you for being so thoughtful and so willing to take time out of your busy schedule to think of us over here in Iraq. We really appreciate all the things that those back home do for us, because it lets us know that someone is thinking about us and appreciates us just as much as we appreciate them. Please extend my sincere gratitude to all those that participated in helping you with such a wonderful gesture.

Your time and thoughtfulness is so very much appreciated. May god bless ya'll and take care!!!

I just got your post cards there are very encouraging. Just a few lines to let you all know that the soldiers appreciate what are you doing at the home front. Thank you for the morale booster during the holidays.

I just wanted to return the gratitude and appreciation on a personal level to all the men and women that put together "Let's Say Thanks". Sometimes it's difficult to get up in the morning and put on the uniform, but receiving things like this reminds us why we serve. I appreciate those taking the time to send strangers a reminder of not only what we're fighting for, but also who we're fighting for. THANK YOU!
