Review for Soldiers' Angels, San Antonio, TX, USA
My husband and I do not have any children. He is a retired CMSgt in the Air Force and we live in New Braunfels. We have a good friend who works with Soldiers' Angels. I received an email about your adopt a family at Christmas. I called my friend asking her opinion about the program and she indicated she has adopted families. So I applied for the program and selected a family of five who live on Ft Sam. They have three young children and it has been an absolute joy to shop for the family (especially shopping for children). We delivered the presents to the family and was able to visit with them. We try to stay in contact with them. AND, I got the birth dates of the children so am sending them presents on their special day. We found out that the youngest child's birthday is the same as my husband, and the second oldest birthday is the same as mine. So this whole process has been a joy and fun.
Wow!! What an amazing story! We are so happy to hear that you have enjoyed the Adopt-A-Family program and made such a meaningful connection with the family you supported!
