MIAMI HEAT’S PAT RILEY AGAIN SUPPORTS TROOPS AND AMERICA’S MOMS
Pat Riley is known for building NBA championship
teams, including two with the Miami Heat. But he has one special interest
beyond basketball – supporting the U.S. military.
He proved that again on Dec. 17, 2012 when he sponsored
the packing of 250 care packages to send to U.S. troops in Afghanistan. It was
the fourth consecutive year during the holiday season that the Heat president
joined with America’s Moms for Soldiers in sending care packages to troops who
otherwise do not receive mail.

A CHRISTMAS STORY
It was Christmas, but it didn’t seem like it at a small
base in the mountains of Afghanistan.
Soldiers were going about their daily duties, but a
little lonelier than usual. Then the day suddenly got better. One officer
started delivering care packages provided by America’s Moms for Soldiers.
“They were all so thankful, and for a moment, forgot it
was going to be a long Christmas night,” the officer emailed. “Each one of
the soldiers came to thank me for bringing them the boxes and I told each
of them where the boxes came from.
“Thank you for helping me bring some Christmas cheer to
young soldiers who are so far from home. Thank you so much for caring
about somebody who serves so far away and helping him remember the true
meaning of Christmas.”

St. Thomas Aquinas students are reliable supporters of the troops
St. Thomas Aquinas High School students did more than celebrate another
state football championship in December. They again held a supply drive in
support of America's Moms for Soldiers and U.S. troops in Afghanistan.
St. Thomas students hold an annual drive and gathered enough supplies to
fill two SUVs.
Students, from kindergarten through college in Broward and Miami-Dade
counties, have become very reliable in their support of the troops. If
your school is interested in working with America's Moms for Soldiers in a
supply drive or packing session, please call 954-358-9358.

Miami Heat - Click

For the third time in 2012, students at Cypress Bay High School have shown
their support for troops in Afghanistan and America's Moms for Soldiers.
The Weston school's Friends of Soldiers club found a good way to celebrate
12-12-12, gathering supplies and packing care packages to send to troops
in Afghanistan.
In January, Cypress Bay's Junior ROTC held a similar packing day, and in
spring, students collected supplies for America's Moms.
Packing care packages is a great way for students to learn about the
sacrifices the American military makes for our protection. If your school
is interested in supporting the troops and America's Moms for Soldiers,
please call 954-358-9358.
Broward College students got in the holiday spirit by gathering
supplies and preparing care packages to send to U.S. troops in
Afghanistan.
The
collection and packing event was started and coordinated by the Broward
College Chapter of the Association of Florida Colleges at the North Campus
location in Coconut Creek, Florida.

On the day before Thanksgiving, students at Miami's Cushman School found a
great way to thank our military by gathering supplies and packing 125 care
packages to send to troops in Afghanistan.
This is the second time in 2012 that Cushman students have worked with
America's Moms for Soldiers to send care packages to troops who do not
receive mail from home.
The Miami Heat have been longtime supporters of America's Moms for
Soldiers, but this time, it was Heat center Chris Bosh, his wife Adrienne
and his Team Tomorrow foundation that took the lead in supporting troops
in Afghanistan. Bosh sponsored the supplies and mailing of 250 care
packages. Each package contained a blanket, hygiene supplies and snacks.
"This is one of the things that hit home for us because we both have
family members who are actually in Afghanistan," Bosh said.

In Memory of Sue Hatch 7/7/54 - 10/28/11 |

Sue was the Volunteer Coordinator and the heart of America's Moms for Soldiers. She was our 'people' person and worked tirelessly to make sure all of our volunteers felt welcome and comfortable. Sue believed strongly in our mission and would want us to continue without her. She will surely be missed by all of us, but her love for God, country, and the American soldier will travel in each package we send. |
