Say Thank You!

cards for the troops
I previously wrote a post about a program sponsored by Xerox, along with several other companies, called "Let's Say Thanks" that allows us to send "Thank You" cards to our troops, for FREE, through a web site that was set up specifically for this purpose. You just go to www.letssaythanks.com and select from 59 different cards that were created by children. Xerox pays for the shipping and sends the card.

I'm bringing this up again because, being the cynic that I can sometimes be, I wondered if the troops were actually getting the cards. Well, yesterday I spoke with one of our servicemen who has been actively deployed, and asked him if they had received the cards that were sent through the "Let's Say Thanks" program. He said "YES", they were receiving them! lets say thanks

So I'm posting this information again, to remind everyone to support our troops; and to let you know that those in service ARE receiving what you send. They need our support, so please don't forget.

Don't blame our military for your personal beliefs about the war. These men and women are putting their lives at stake every day they're deployed and they need to know we care.

Lisa,

As a former Marine - I wanted to send you a big THANKS.  I love seeing people openly supporting our troops.  I know this war is not a popular one and our troops really do need our support.

Again THANK YOU

Vincent- I'm happy to help! We civilians can only begin to imagine the horrors over there. It's easy to pass judgment about "why" and forget about the people who are involved. Our troops deserve to be respected and honored.

Katrina- Sorry! Happens to me all the time =/

Jason- The site's really easy to use. I usually send several at a time. 

Gary- I hadn't planned to do it again, but when the soldier confirmed that they were receiving these, I decided to post a little reminder.
