You can be an Operation Airlift Advocate! Tell your friends, tell your neighbors, tell others that Operation Airlift exists. Mention it at church, at work, anywhere and everywhere. Start a collection of items to be donated. Those who are not comfortable going to the store can make a monetary donation. Every package that Operation Airlift mails costs about $30.00 (sounds like a lot). Possibly it is, but it is a small price to pay for the person receiving it that donated their effort & time to defend our country, our freedoms, and our liberties.
DONATE FOOD - We are always in need of food items to send to the troops. TROOPS IN NEED - If you know of a Soldier, Marine, Sailor, Airman or Coast Guardsman that is serving our country and they need a little slice of home, let us know! If you are not comfortable with using an electronic form of donation, you can send a check to: VFW Post 5151, P.O. Box 9, Streamwood, Illinois 60107. Please put in the memo or add a note that it is for Operation Airlift. We humbly thank you for your donation and know that 100% of your donation will be used for the contents of a care package and/or the postage to get it to the troops missing home.
