Cans for Cookies US Troops was started this JULY by me to honor my son, Lance Corporal Hranek, US Marine stationed in North Marja Afghanistan, my two nephews serving in the Army overseas, one having earned a Purple Heart, and all the other brave men and women defending our homeland and our freedom.
Please email me here with your name, address, how many cookies you will bake and I will send you the name of a soldier or other US TROOPS person to whom your package may be addressed. If you have a troop member you would like to add to the mailing roster, please email me here with the details. I need full name, rank, stationed APO address and which armed force he/she is serving with. You may also email pictures or links to their units.
HOPING your hearts open with PINK sugar cookies to fill our cans with cookies, filling their hearts with homemade love!
Two Marines serving our country!
My son, Marine Lance Corporal Joseph Hranek serving in North Marja, Afghanistan.

ReplyDeleteValerie- I teach an American Girl class and I know the girls would love to take part in this! Could you please e-mail me the information? We are meeting this week and would love to help!:) Thank you for letting us know about this opportunity! Lori toosillysisters@cox.net
ReplyDeleteValerie: What a great idea! I am actually going to be homeless for an unknown amount of time this fall. I will tell my sister about this and maybe she will do it for me. Or! If I am SO homeless I have to stay with her for awhile, we may do it together.
ReplyDeleteRome, NY gal, gone south for many years, now in VT and on my way to CA soon (I think!) :-)
God Bless you, and God Bless your son. I am in. I will be emailing you right now. What a wonderful thing to do. xxoo Valarie
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful thing, we'd love to help. We lost my dad this July. Veteran's Day would have been his birthday. It will be a great way to honor him (he served in the Air Force) and support our troops. Thank you for the idea.
ReplyDeleteI will be emailing you soon for some names. I'm organzing a baking party at my school with the kitchens, to see how many we can do!
ReplyDeleteI also featured you this week on my blog!
Great great great cause!
Happy PS!
