PAW PAW, MI (WKZO AM/FM) – The Southwest MI Chapter #179 of Blue Star Mothers of America, Inc. is thanking the local community for its support of their annual Operation Holiday Cheer project.
The annual event, which was held last month, is meant to put together holiday care packages for military personnel stationed overseas.
A statement was released and can be read as follows:
Because of the generosity of the community, 340 boxes filled with Christmas stockings, letters and cards of support, games, and gallon sized Ziploc bags of food/snack items and hygiene items were shipped to men and women who are deployed during the holiday season.
We could not have accomplished this amazing feat without all of the individuals, families, organizations and businesses that donated items, their time, and money to ship the boxes! A huge Thank You to all who participated!
