I heard about an Army National Guard Captain deployed to Afghanistan who is collecting cold weather clothing for some local kids. These children are not prepared for the coming winter and need everything from mittens to shoes. I packed up a box of some our kid-sized quilts and shipped them out today!Annapolis: We are also making a delivery to AAMC NICU this week, as well as the Annapolis Lighthouse shelter the week before Christmas.
Walter Reed Army Medical Center: On December 21 I will be making a delivery of 90 Christmas stockings, quilts and all kinds of other goodies for the wounded soldiers recovering at Walter Reed Army Medical Center. Thank you to the Annapolis Area Christian School 4th and 5th graders, the Calvary Chapel Christian School in Auburn California, the Girl Scout Troop in Millersville for the cookies and cards, and the wonderful Quilts for Kids chapters in Tennessee, Emmaus, Pennsylvania, and Ft. Myers Florida!
