Soldiers' Angels

ANGEL WHISPERS
VOLUME 1 ISSUE 2 November, 2004
MESSAGE FROM OUR FOUNDER:

I want to take this time to thank each and every Angel worldwide for the wonderful support of our troops. So many have come to help. Not only from the US but from Germany, Australia, Belgium, New Zealand, Denmark, England, France, Poland and more. It is awe-inspiring.
My father a 2-time Viet Nam vet and his West Point Buddies all came with donations for backpacks when the call was put out that the wounded needed us. Through gracious donations Angels were able to help our wounded heroes in many different areas, from combat hospitals to Landstuhl, to our hospitals here in the states. The Blankets of Hope project has grown to many sewers handcrafting blankets to send to the wounded with hopes and prayers for their speedy recovery. An American Flag, was hand sewn, as in the days of Betsy Ross and is currently being signed by heroes in Iraq. It will be presented to a very special Angel.
Thousands of heroes were adopted and care packages relentlessly go out in steady stream with needed supplies and letters of encouragement. A letter writing team writes to every hero submission we receive with words of support and paragraphs of belief in their mission and memories of home. A TLC team insures a request for boots or gloves or zebra cakes gets filled. Our crafty Angels knit and sew for our deployed soldiers newborns and send cigars of congratulations. We may not be able to fight on the front lines but we can make sure that neither they nor their family want for anything.

It is only through the collective effort of people who believe and stand for freedom that we can continue to help these young heroes who valiantly stand for us.

I do not know how long we will be needed but I know for now we are looking at least another year. Your continued efforts are greatly appreciated. A big thank you to all the volunteers who work tirelessly to ensure soldiers angels thrives and the mission is continued. Thank you all for helping to bring home healthy soldiers,

Happy Holidays
