Give a smile all year
'round
DID YOU KNOW?... that the US Military supplies our troops with
uniforms, boots, weapons, protective gear and a place to live....BUT
THEY DO NOT PROVIDE PERSONAL HYGIENE ITEMS! Service members
must take care of those items themselves. When
the troops are deployed to Forward Operating Bases in remote areas,
that can be hard to downright impossible to do. It's up to their
families and groups like Letters With Love to step in
and help them out.
- Freedom Pack: It's your chance
to say,
"Thank you for your sacrifices to keep freedom alive."

We take an APO
& FPO flat rate
box and put in basic hygiene, a
Write Home Pack, plus a pack of greeting cards. We also put in
snacks, travels
sized games, DVDs or a book, and as many things from the requested item
list as we can
fit in. You can donate these items or let us do the shopping,
packing and shipping. $50.00
suggested minimum
donation
-
Medic's
pack which includes all items from the Medic's requested
items list and as many other items as we can fit into the
large flat
rate box. A medic is the equivalant to an EMT, they take care of
everyone & we help them take care of themselves.
Suggested
donation of $50 - $75.00 per Medic
DID YOU KNOW THAT? Calling home can
mean a long trip, through hazardous conditions, to a phone bank that may not be working, because of
black outs or weather conditions? Internet is seldom available in Afghanistan? Letter writing is still the best way
to
contact home & loved ones. There
is nothing like holding that precious
piece of paper with writing on it from a loved one that is far away. It
is a feeling we know so well.
- Write Home Pack:

These include:
- Writing tablet
- box of envelopes
- packs of Bic black ink pens
- and a pack of 10 blank greeting cards
- basic hygiene items
$30.00 minimum
donation per service member. We put these items in a large flat rate
box and cover 3 service members at a time.

donating funds for, please include it on the special instructions
section of the donation page.

Service Member's
Dependents
donations:
- We
sometimes have requests for help with special school supplies for
service members' children. These needs are not always the same, so we
are
accepting donations to hold just for meeting those requests. i.e. art
supplies for a class, a science fair project, or games that help a
child learn to read:
- School
Supplies for Orphans:
- These include
notebook, pencils, manual pencil sharpener, eraser, construction paper,
crayons or colored pencils, drawing pad, and a pretty headscarf for the girls. You
can donate these items or let us do the shopping. We can also do the
fun stuff packs for the orphans. $15.00 minimum suggested donation

We send out Christmas
cards in bulk boxes per platoon size which is usually 45 - 50 packs of
cards
per big box. Most companies usually have 4 Platoons, though larger
companies may have more.(pictured are enough boxes for one company of
Service Members). We must use Priority
mail, and good quality boxes, so it runs us $20 - $25 per box. The cost
quickly adds up. So if you would like to help we would appreciate it.
Note: all funds received will be
used for
products and
services to assist the troops who are protecting our freedom.
EVERYONE AT LWL IS AN
UNPAID VOLUNTEER. Our paycheck comes in the form
of Thank you's and hugs when service members and their families come to
visit.
