It is time once again for Letters From Home to send out their items received for the Spring Campaign. The ship out date is April 20, 2008. Therefore, you only have a few weeks to get your items together. I suggest shipping Priority Mail due to the deadline.
They ship three times this year:

My daughters' school participates in our local program that was spearheaded from this chapter. The soldiers love phone cards, they have to be international, so they can talk to their family when they have opportunity. Also, the Soldiers just love, love, love, the cards they receive. This campaign is taking Valentine's Day, Easter, and Spring cards. Thank you cards are always welcome. The volunteers stuff your card in a SASE for you. They can not give out Soldiers' names due to Privacy Act. However, if you put your return address inside the card, you may hear back from the Soldier that received your card/box.
It is a great way to help out the Soldiers and let them know they are not forgotten. It is also a great way to get your child/children involved in helping and thinking of others. Have your smaller children make homemade cards. LFH just asks that you NOT use GLITTER, as it gets on the other products in the boxes. I know, I know, how can you not have glitter???!!!
I understand their request and wouldn't want glitter in my candy either! LOL ;)
Donations can be more than cards. They lists all the donation requests on the website.
