6th Grade Care Package Collection

In honor of Veteran's Day our class has voted to send care packages to soldiers deployed to Afghanistan. We have at least one parent in each of the 6th grade classes that is currently deployed. Our care package(s)will be sent to their unit(s).
Items these soldiers would like to have are :
  • coffee
  • creamer (powdered)
  • sugar
  • holiday treats
You are welcome to give anything you wish. Something that might be nice is a pre-paid phone card. Fort Riley will not forward calls to Manhattan where our families live. Therefore, soldiers have to pay to call their families. Isn't is always the little things that you & I take for granted that make a deployed soldiers day?! Please begin sending in items as soon as possible. I'll be mailing the box on November 17th.
