Care Packages for our U.S. Soldiers deployed overseas
The Firefighters of Boca Raton have partnered with the Forgotten Soldiers Outreach organization to provide Care Packages to our U.S. Troops who are deployed overseas. These men and women serve on the front lines to protect what we sometimes take for granted: Liberty & Freedom. By providing these Packages, we are showing them that we do care about them and have not forgotten the sacrifice that they are making on a daily basis.
How can you help? You can help by donating any of the various items listed below, or by making a monetary contribution to help with the purchase and shipment of these packages. It costs just under $20.00 to ship one Care Package to an individual soldier overseas. Donated items may be dropped off at any of our City of Boca Raton Fire Stations. If you would like to make a monetary donation, feel free to use our on-line PayPal system, or you can write a check and designate it for the troops.
