Verified Angel

My co-workers and I were discussing the upcoming Holidays and all the shopping and errands we had left to do, and one of them mentioned how she had just mailed a care package to a soldier they had adopted.  Apparently it's a nonprofit organization called "Soldiers' Angels" and I was immediately intrigued about how I could become involved. 
A few minutes later, she emailed me the link and I clicked away like the sponge that I am. 
Soldiers' Angels is strictly voluntary and the intent is to provide aid and comfort to our wounded warriors and Armed Forces serving overseas.  
There are a number of ways you can volunteer, but I chose to commit to a small donation, writing letters once a week and sending a monthly care package.  Who knows, maybe my time and effort will put a smile on a courageous soldiers' face who is putting their life on the line for me, and this great country we live in.  My hope is to provide a little bit of happiness since many of them have little, to no family to speak of.


Today, I adopted a soldier.  And I'm proud to be a part of Soldiers' Angels.

A verified Angel?
I most certainly am and I have no idea what took me so long.
