Operation Shoebox in dire need
Dear Moderator,
As you & many of your readers are aware I volunteer for Operation Shoebox a military support group for our men & women serving in war zones.
It was with a saddened heart that I came home from OSB yesterday. We packaged 3,000 care packages & had to put them in storage because we do not have the funds to ship them. Now your readers have been very generous in sending me their Christmas card fronts to put in our Christmas stockings but now I'm here begging for a little bit of financial help so we can ship our packages. If everyone that reads this letter or hears about it from someone else, would simply send a dollar or two, we would have enough to send several months worth of packages. I'll also be sending this request via Email to the several blogs in the county & one in Randolph county as well as to the Elkins newspaper. I've already sent a letter to the editor of the Times.
If your readers can help us out I'd like them to make a check or money order out to: Operation Shoebox & send it to me at: Mrs. Linda Gibb (OSB); 1277 Pageland Way; The Villages, FL 32162-8685..
On behalf of OSB & the men & women serving our country in the war zones, I'm thanking you in advance.
Sincerely,
Linda Gibb
