This year our family would like to send some care packages to soldiers serving. We are a Navy family, but no active duty since the 80's. So, we do not know anyone personally at this time to send things to. I've looked over some websites & they say the Dept of Defense won't allow sending to "any service member"...so I would need a service person's name.
Anyone know a reputable site where soldiers in need post their wish list? I'd like to just buy what's on their wish list & send it to them for Christmas. Or, if there's an organization here in the USA that I can call and they can assign a soldier to our family.
There are so many families here in USA with loved ones serving that aren't able to send the extras this holiday season and we'd like to help. There's also young men & women serving that have no one back home, family-wise to send them goodies. So, if anyone has info or suggestions on how we can adopt a soldier, we would love to do it. Thanks.
