We need your continued support in order to keep our effort going.
Each week we send out a variety of supplies on average about six to ten cases. Items that need to be replaced often are baby wipes. Due to the extreme heat and limited bathroom conditions they are used often. Powdered drink mixes are another item we have a hard time keeping up with. The most requested kind is Gatorade. Again due to the high temperatures the troops are required to drink a certain amount of water each day to keep from dehydrating. They said it's much easier to do if it's flavored and Gatorade contains much needed electrolytes. However the most appreciated item was a shipment of new pillows. Something so simple meant so much to the marines. One marine told me it was like Christmas morning when the boxes came in! They are thankful for every item sent especially letters from strangers. Just knowing that people do care and appreciate their effort keeps them going everyday. For a complete list of items needed go to our supplies needed list. Please there are many ways you can help. Even the smallest gesture may mean a great deal to someone so far from home. Monetary donations can be sent to Wachovia Bank 6128 Ridge Ave Philadelphia, PA 19128. Items can be dropped of at the Review Newspaper at 6220 Ridge Avenue Philadelphia, PA 19128. There are many other ways you can help so please fill out a contact information form and we will send you information. Thank you in advance for your help.
