THE FIRST ANNUAL

Our goal is to SEND A LITTLE HOME AS A way of saying “thank you” to a random soldier.

HERE IS HOW OPERATION RUCKSACK WORKS:

1) Purchase a rucksack.

These are common, personal backpacks used by military personnel with optional colors in green, tan and black and typically cost around $20 on ebay.com or amazon.com.

2) Fill them with the following supplies.

1 Toothbrush
1 Shaving lotion
2 Bars of soap/body wash
6 Pairs of socks
(size 6-12)
2 Boxes water flavor packets
1 Book for down time
1 Hand-written letter

1 Tube of toothpaste
2 Tubes of lip balm
1 Gilette Fusion Razor
1 Pack of baby wipes
1 Foot powder
5 Misc. sauce packets
1 Magazine
(Hunting, etc.)
1 Down-time game (frisbee, football, etc.)

We will add a Project RED Friday wrist band and t-shirt to the bag and will personally deliver them to soldiers on Thanksgiving. 

DO YOU WANT TO GET INVOLVED BUT NOT ABLE BECAUSE OF TIME OR DISTANCE?
