As of the beginning of July 2012, I am now a "Verified Angel!"
Soldier's Angels is an organization dedicated to our armed forces. They We aid them by showing them our support and thanks by providing them with love and appreciation through letters and care packages. They accept donations and help through volunteers who provide services in teams or in a lot of cases those who go solo (like myself).
SA has such a variety of ways to help our soldiers. You can join one of the many teams and projects they have created and put on their website soldiersangels.com . You can join a letter writing team, make care packages, bake cookies; whatever you love to do for people you care about, you can do for our soldiers!
What I've decided to do to help our servicemen and women is by adopting a soldier. To adopt a soldier is to take up one of the most major commitments that SA has. When you adopt a soldier, he/she is yours to take care of while they are deployed. Your serviceperson can me in the Army, the Navy, the Marines, etc and are hundreds or thousands of miles away and a kind heart can be what continues their fight to keep us safe and secure.
After becoming a verified angel with a donation as little as $1, you can adopt as many soldiers as you like, but be sure to keep up with your commitment!
The commitment I have made is to write at least one letter a week and send at least one care package per month to my personal adopted soldier... seems like a small gesture, right? This is anything but!
Go ahead and visit the attached link and have a look around, the testimonials from soldiers are so heartwarming and show such appreciation for what SA does for them.
Thanks for following, all! and happy helping!
