Family, Farm & Home in Alma, Michigan recently held a "Buy One/Give One" promotion to collect snacks for Active Duty Military personnel stationed overseas. VFW Post 1454's Auxiliary offered their assistance by volunteering to pack & ship the treats collected overseas. It was an awesome surprise to receive photos back from our Troops stationed in Kuwait.
