Hey y'all!
I need your help!
You may have heard that a couple of months ago the big "D" word happend: Deployment!
Yuck! I know, but thankfully with technology, Mattie & I get to iMessage daily and occasionally FaceTime {much better than waiting weeks or months for a letter that to hear from your love}.
It is especially nice for Lennon to hear his voice! It always makes me happy to see her smile at him.
One thing about deployment that I have enjoyed is making Care Packages.
I have sent Mattie 2 since he has been gone, although he has only received one so far.
I recently asked him if there were any guys that have not received any care packs and sadly he said there were quite a few! Seeing how happy he was to get the first one, I have decided to take it upon myself to send some to the Marines who have not gotten one.
This is where you come in!
Visit my GoFundMe help send a care package! |
Care package are kind of expensive to fill and send {approximately $100 per pack}, but with your help, we can boost their morale! I have set up a GoFundMe to raise $500 to send 5 care packages over. 100% of the money will go toward filling and sending these packages.
You may ask, what are some of the things that your money will be going towards?
Here are a few of the requested items:
-Stationary & Pens
-Handwarmers, Handwarmers, HANDWARMERS
-Razors
-Chapstick
-Kleenex
-Cough drops
-Drink additives
{Mio, Gatorade Powder, etc}
-Snacks
{Sunflower Seeds, Nuts, etc}
-Candy
And much, much more!
Postage is only $15.90 per box
I hope you will help send a little bit of home to these Marines while they are over seas!
Here are a few photos of the Care Package that Mattie has received!
I was so happy that he got it before his birthday!
They are as much fun to make as they are to be opened!
Happy Tuesday!
