My Nonprofit Reviews

Soldiers' Angels has made such a difference in my life. When the war first started I was looking for some way to help. Then I found SA. When I first joined I was not very involved. I had one soldier that I adopted and that was it. Then I started to read the forum and realized what they were going through and how they were living so I adopted two more. Three is the limit so I started looking for other ways to help. I became involved with other parts of the group. I joined the Living Legends team. I make cards and send them to the families that have lost loved ones. I found a poem and a beautiful picture so I made post cards and I enclose them in each letter. I have received so many thank you cards back from the families saying the card/poem helped them so much. I shed tears when the cards go out and even more when the thank yous come back. This has made me appreciate those I love so much more knowing they are close to home and safe because others have volunteered to go fight for all of us. I joined the Deployed Medical Support Team and I make blankets and pillows to send them so those that are injured can be a little more comfortable. A little piece of my heart goes with everything I send over. I also joined the Chaplain Support Team and have become a co-leader with it. I have tried to learn a little about all the religions that our chaplains support so I can better understand what they need. I have learned to ask for things that our heroes can use. So many people want to help and just don't know how to and I understand because that is exactly where I started. I have had many heroes over the years. Some I heard from and some were silent but I hope that I have made a difference in their lives because I know they have made a difference in mine. I have received letters from some that wrote after they came home and said we make such a difference while they are over there, just knowing they aren't forgotten and that they are appreciated. I try to let them know that they are loved and prayed for and that they are truly America's Heroes. We are the only country that has a 100% volunteer military and they do this for all of us.
