Sponsor a Soldier

I have just recently found out a way to sponsor a soldier. I think this is an awesome thing to do because these guys are over in Iraq and some don't have a lot of friends or family to send them notes or care packages etc. So by sponsoring a soldier you pledge for the next 15 months you will adopt a soldier making sure your soldier knows they are appreciated!!! If you are interested in adopting a soldier leave me a comment or email me and I will send you the information.

Not many of you know this but I had a brother. He was a marine and was in the first Gulf war. I was a teenager and totally self involved. Until recently I didn't give much thought about what life was like over there. I worried about him of course and I kept up with him as much as I could but I didn't go out of my way. He has since passed away about 13 years ago. Now as an adult I am worried that he was over there without support and comfort from anyone back home. I don't know if my parents wrote to him or not. I like to think so but I just don't know. So that is why I am sponsoring a soldier. I am doing it for my brother. I am doing it for myself to make myself feel a little better about it all. I am doing it for the soldier!
