Review for Soldiers' Angels, San Antonio, TX, USA
My family has been involved with Soldiers' Angels for over 6 years. The organization is very helpful and well repected in our area. People in our area love to volunteer to help them out. The effort that is closest to our heart is the Blankets of hope. Our family has organized an annual event in our hometown of Bowie, Maryland for 5 years. The number of volunteers continues to grow as do the number of blankets. Last year we made 352 homemade blankets in just 8 hours to comfort injured warriors. Soldiers Angels has made it so easy to help them. The founder Patti Patton-Bader has always been available to assist with any questions. My husband has also been at Fisher House picnics where Soldiers' Angels gave out modified laptop computers to amputees, we have assisted in purchasing dress uniforms for Soldiers to attend their commanding officers funeral. The number of good things that Soldiers Angels does could never be covered in this review, but they are a wonderful organization full of people with big hearts, and even more patriotism than you can believe. Every year after our blanket making event has concluded people start to ask, "when will the next event be?" Both Patti and Marianne (she received the blankets in Germany for distibution) call in to the event to inspire people and move them to tears with stories of just how much these blankets mean to the injured men and women soldiers. My familt and community enjoys working with the outstanding non-profit Soldiers Angels. We look forward to many more years of affiliation.
