You Can Be Part Of The 9th Annual Military Care Package Drive!

The 9th Annual Military Care Package Drive is underway in Kennesaw. Each year, Christmas care packages are mailed to our deployed service members to show our appreciation for all they sacrifice for us. Care packages are filled with donated items and sent to our servicemen and women who will not be home for the Holidays. This event relies on individuals, families, or businesses and they need our help!

There are several ways you can help!

DROP OFF DONATIONS FOR THE CARE PACKAGES:

Items needed are gum, hard candy (nothing that will melt), trail mix, granola bars, Christmas (non-perishable) related cookies or candies, current magazines, beef jerky, individual powdered drink mixes (Gatorade for example), dental products, travel sized wet wipes, small travel games, small footballs, playing cards, books, all toiletries (male and female), deodorant (no aerosols please) lip balm, sunscreen (lotion only), Sudoku, Crosswords, Brainteasers, etc.
