I don’t often share personal postings to my blog but this article touched my heart and really made me aware of a great need. I really had NO idea of this kind of need…don’t ever hear anything about this from the news media. We need to though! The article is in the current issue of the Warrenton Lifestyle which is a local full color magazine that serves as a guide to living and shopping in and around the town of Warreton, Virginia and surrounding Fauquier County. I always enjoy reading through it when I have a few minutes – a rarity but I do try!
Anyway, when I read this article about a mom and the needs of her son and his battalion, I felt compelled to do something. These are basic, really basic necessities that are needed here folks. And, I for one am willing to give something up in order to get these soldiers what they need. Maybe just give up a Starbucks treat or two this week and buy some boxers or socks or beef jerky instead? If you are not local, why not help out with postage? Whatever you can do, I know the soldiers pictured in this article and many others would be forever greatful. Please just take a moment to read below…respond in whatever way you can. All the contact info is at the bottom. God bless you!
