On Nov. 14 a milestone of 6003 boxes mailed was reached. Approximately 80 boxes were mailed this day, the first of several hundred that will be mailed during the Christmas season.
Since Spring of 2005 our neighborhood group, led by Carla Reed, has sent over 6651 care boxes to our troops in the Middle East. Volunteers from Rockport, Corpus Christi, Mathis and even other states gather in Carla's home each month. Her passion for supporting these young Americans has kept the project strong. Visits from some of the returning soldiers receiving care boxes reaffirm our resolve to honor these heroes who give so much to keep America free.
