We received their names and addresses from a friend who is an organizer of Proud Patriots.<BR/><BR/>I don’t believe the organization normally distributes servicemen’s names and addresses (the only way we were able to receive ours resulted from the fact that we know one of the organizers personally, and I wanted to do it this way). They are hesitant to have people do one-on-one package mailing to the soldiers, simply because other organizations that have attempted to do that have had problems with infiltrators who claim to want to send items to the troops and then they wound up sending anti-war material, etc. to them instead. So Proud Patriots has found that, unless they know the person very well, it is best that the organization itself handle the package mailing. <BR/><BR/>This is a wonderful organization, and you may donate monetarily, or by furnishing specific items that are needed. Their website is self-explanatory:<BR/><BR/>http://www.proudpatriots.org<BR/><BR/> I hope this helps.<BR/><BR/>~ joaniejoaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11914891807184694081noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28785049.post-41356524969445045932007-07-03T13:17:00.000-04:002007-07-03T13:17:00.000-04:00"we are instead sending monthly packages over to a..."we are instead sending monthly packages over to a couple of individual soldiers in Iraq."<BR/><BR/>Tell more about how that is done.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28785049.post-71517062964134125752007-07-02T16:07:00.000-04:002007-07-02T16:07:00.000-04:00Thank you Kaziah, and thank you Joanie for posting...Thank you Kaziah, and thank you Joanie for posting this.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28785049.post-59704287696051050802007-07-01T23:44:00.000-04:002007-07-01T23:44:00.000-04:00Thanks to all who have indicated that they intend ...Thanks to all who have indicated that they intend to contribute to this wonderful cause!<BR/><BR/>Rick and I decided to stop contributing to the RNC quite a while ago, and now, with part of that money, we are instead sending monthly packages over to a couple of individual soldiers in Iraq.

How much better is supporting organizations like hers than supporting political candidates who turn on you? It’s the people 'in the trenches' who need to be remembered.<BR/><BR/>Again, many thanks for the wonderful generosity expressed here!joaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11914891807184694081noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28785049.post-64266362258334342582007-07-01T23:35:00.000-04:002007-07-01T23:35:00.000-04:00I just checked out their web site top to bottom. ...I just checked out their web site top to bottom.
