Christmas in June

Because the troops are at work all year round.
It’s the middle of the year. No big holidays in sight, no special seasons that inspire our generosity. And yet this is the time of year when donations are so very needed to help support our military men and women. The wonderful donations given to Soldiers’ Angels at Christmas have long since been used, and yet the need is still great. I’m sure even the troops have noticed the trend - during Christmas and other big holidays they are swamped with carepackages and letters of support, which is great - really it is! Yet it has to make them wonder where that support is the rest of the year. Do we give because we are ’supposed to’ during the ’season of giving’?
It is always the right time to thank these men and women, and show our appreciation for their service.
Can you spare a little to let them know we still support them? You can use this widget to donate to Soldiers’ Angels through Paypal. (This widget directs you to the same Paypal account you would use from the SA website Paypal button, but it’s also used for tracking the total donations.)
You can also embed this widget on your own site to help raise money to support our military men and women. Just click “Copy” in the widget for the embed code.
We want to raise $100,000 by July 4th, and still have quite a way to go. Please help however you can!
