Goods needed for the Wounded Warriors

[Dinny]

Hello everyone,
  As many of you know, I work with the Wounded Warriors that are transitioning through Scott AFB.  Recently I was asked to take full control of the Welcome Home Soldier Program. Today when I was there to move patients on-board their next flight, I noticed that the goody closet has been emptying at a alarming rate. If anyone can donate a few items, these men and women would be greatly appreciative. Lately they have been in the staging facility just long enough to need only a snack. The snacks are going fast. Also on a sad note, we are seeing more and more patients every mission. 

Please PM me for address info.

Favorites:
Fruit Roll Ups
Soda
Cup-O-Fruit
Ramen Noodles bowls and cups (no durable bowles or cups available in staging facility)
Juice boxes, Capri Suns, etc
Durable plastic spoons and forks are also needed

I am very thankful for all the donations that have been given!

Thanks, Dinny

Ladies and Gentlemen,
  Today I received some valuable advice. Since the Welcome Home Soldier Program is a gov't program, I am not permitted to solicit donations. Rather I can say this, "It would be really nice if you could donate something."  Also, since this program doesn't have a Treasurer, cash/money can't be accepted into the program as a donation. So I have two options here, #1 accept anything you may send and donate it myself directly into the program just as if I gave it myself or... #2 I can donate it to another supporting organization that is an official non-profit organization i.e. the local American Legions, VFWs, Hope for Heroes, WWP, etc.... Either way, I am accepting some risk myself. Since this is a heart-felt cause that I won't back down on and will stand-up for as long as I can stand, I will gladly accept that risk!

Please keep those donations coming, "it is really nice of you to do!" 

Thanks, Dinny

Hello everyone,
  Recently I received a updated list of needed items/goods. If any of you can contribute, I would be deeply grateful. Please PM me for a direct mailing address.

This message came from a flight nurse that I work my coordination through:

Good afternoon Sir,

I would like to say again, thank you, and your organization for all you do. There are only are only a few items that would need to be refreshed:

1) shampoo
2) tuna pack kits
3) fruit cups (pears particularly, patients are on narcotics for pain, and immobile in aircraft are prone to constipation)
4) small individual cans of prune juice
5) small contains of baby powder ( makes immobile patients feel great)

Very Respectfully,

Capt F

Happy Holidays!!

Thanks, Dinny
