Hi everyone! Hope you’re all doing awesome as we get closer and closer to the holidays and celebration for the new year! Do you know what else this means? We are 10 days away from the collection date for Wishes for Our Warriors and Cards for Vets on December 15th.
So, there is plenty of time, 10 days, for us to get our altruistic hearts together and increase our collection efforts to show those less fortunate, some more unconditional positive regard, love, and spirit of the season. Together, we have accomplished so much.
Please stay inspired with this idea and how many more people we can make a difference for by participating in the 2023 Wishes for Warriors Collection effort and show those we help that there are options, and they haven’t been forgotten.
Many of us and enjoying time with family and friends, great food, holiday decorations, shopping for loved ones, all the endearing and stressful preparations for the holidays. Well, for 1000’s of men women and children, it might mean holidays in the hospital, a country far away from those they love, or somewhere, on the cold streets with or without their families.
The shelters relayed that there is a great need for things like twin sheets, dish soap, laundry detergent, hand soap, and blankets. In addition to our normal collection requests of personal hygiene products, gloves, hats, socks, and toilet paper, paper towels. I am sure countless people will be truly grateful. So, thank you from me and the shelters in advance!
For anyone interested in helping this collection date of 12/15, you can either contact me @ jmckiernanclarke738@gmail.com or phone 484-688-6128. There are also boxes wrapped like presents and say Cards for Vets/Wishes for Our Warriors at the Upper Merion Township/Police Station on Valley Forge Road by the doors to the library, The Upper Merion Community Center on Valley Forge Road as well and the Henderson Center on Beidler Road.
Your ongoing and selfless participation are always appreciated and valued. Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, or whichever holiday you may celebrate and may you have a beautiful, safe and Happy New Year! As always, our homeless/veterans love the cards and messages and donations. Anything you provide will truly have an amazing impact on so many lives!
Warm Wishes and Happy Holidays!
Best regards and gratitude, Jeannie McKiernan-Clarke
