Review for Cell Phones For Soldiers Inc, Alpharetta, GA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

The Hugs Project has had a working relationship with Cell Phones for Soldiers for several years now. Our nationwide members recycle phones with them and they in turn provide phone cards for the troops we send care packages. This year we sent out almost 4,000 Christmas care packages and more than 3,000 boxes throughout the rest of the year. Each Christmas box had a phone card so that the young service member could call home and wish someone he/she loves a Merry Christmas. This was wonderful for our troops and only possible because of the caring of the CPFS organization. Our troops receive a LOT of things in the boxes we send out but I think none is as well received as the chance to call someone back home and for that we (and they) say thank you to Cell Phones for Soldiers from the bottom of our hearts. I just wish it was possible to give more than 5 stars because they've earned it.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

donated phone cards to benefit troops in harm's way.

Review for Hugs Project Incorporated, Oklahoma City, OK, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

This is the best group anyone could ever hope for. Our members are dedicated to supporting Americans far from home. We were the first ones to send cooling ties to the troops serving in the Middle East. We call them "hugs" since they go around the neck and we think all our troops deserve a {{{hug}}}. Cooling ties can reduce body core temps by 5+ degrees helping save our troops from heat stroke deaths. I want to thank every member who has ever made a cooling tie, packed a box, written a letter, made a homemade goodie or prayed for these brave young men and women. Without you, there would be no Hugs Project. Respectfully, Karen Stark Founder/Executive Director

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

the wonderful, patriotic people who do what they do simply because they love America's troops and veterans.

How frequently have you been involved with the organization?

About every week
