In case you haven't noticed, the link I have at the top of the page (the one that used to point to Wings of Hope) has changed just a little bit.

Wings hasn't disappeared, exactly... it has just become more of an off-shoot of another Soldiers' Angels program.

"Soldiers Helping Children" was the old name of the SA program that handled requests from our Heroes for items for the children in their area. It was a natural thing to roll "Wings" into that. With the addition of "Wings," and the mounting requests coming in recently, we've done a little revamping of the Soldiers Helping Children page, and the program's gotten a new name, too:

Say Our Soldiers: Kids In-theater Deserve Support

My apologies to our non-Army heroes (requests have come from all branches), but after wandering around my house for a few days rambling in acronyms, this represents my crowning achievement. I tried to come up with something using "heroes," "troops," and various other terms, and probably burned out my thesaurus on the word processor, too. So SOS: KIDS it is.

The program involves kids primarily in Iraq and Afghanistan, though any deployed troops looking for items for local kids are welcome to send requests.

To learn more about what we do, and how you can help, visit the SOS: KIDS webpage.

For all of you who have sent items / donated to Wings of Hope, I should have some further news for you on that shortly.


Now, if I can just find someone to do a neat logo...
