Croton EMS Care Package Drive!

[MJP399 4]

At a recent company meeting The Croton EMS voted to create care packages to help morale of our troops stationed overseas, as we have members of the organization that have contacts over there in the services. We understand that the services can be the home of many young men and women whom they call their family, as they do not have support from back home. These care packages will be an on-going effort to help with the needed supplies as well as the small comforts from home to help brighten their day.

We will have donation drop off boxes set up in the ems lockers so contact a member or stop by on Thursday Nights at 1900 to drop off. Anything you can donate will be greatly appreciated and help out our men and women who are away from their families serving our country.

The following is a list of ideas of what to donate.

Beef Jerkey

Life Savers/Breath Savers etc

Baby wipes

Small Bottles of Mostuirizing Cream

Magazines (PG), comics, word puzzles, sudoku etc

Gum

Lip balm

Mixes for bottled water (i.e. crystal light)

Foot Powder

Sunscreen (high spf)

Bug spsray

Paper - pens

Trail mix

Newspapers

Dental floss, toothpaste, toothbrushes

Shaving kits

Playing cards

Toiletries (men and women)

Sunglasses

Pre-packaged, non-perishable food

Our goal is to make this an ongoing project, filling up one box, sending it, filling up another box, sending it, and so on and so on.

If anyone has any other suggestions, please feel free to let us know. We are open to suggestions welcome any input.

THANK YOU ALL AND WE SHOULD ALL FEEL PROUD THAT WE ARE HELPING THOSE SERVING TO PROTECT US!!!!
