Greetings, friends and neighbors!

I want to draw your attention to a blog with a great cause! 

Recently, a teacher at Olive Drive Elementary was inspired to deliver goods to our troops overseas.  YOU CAN HELP!

CLICK HERE to read the details, and I urge each one of you to donate at least one item from the list (or make your own list of items, share it here, and receive my eternal gratitude).

I'm sure Olive Drive wouldn't mind your donations (in fact, they would LOVE your donations!), but I urge a Southwest school to become involved in this great cause! I challenge other schools to meet or BEAT Olive Drive Elementary's donations.  There are no losers in this endeavor, only winners.

I realize that we all get busy with our lives and that it's easy to temporarily forget that our soldiers are still out doing what they do.  Let's not forget them! 

Is there a prize for who donates the MOST to our soldiers? Nothing tangible other than a reminder to our troops of their value, our gratitude, and our constant and unflagging support.

Imagine what you would be doing to help our many men and women in the miliatary who don't have even the basic toiletries from home. You could be your own sort of hero.

Thank you,

Dana
