The children at Early Learning Village in Frankfort, Kentucky have been recognized for their enthusiasm and efforts to send warm wishes from home to our soldiers serving overseas.
These patriotic children were encouraged by teachers to give back to our soldiers by gathering supplies to send them care packages.
The students were more than excited to participate for this good cause. In just one week, the students at Early Learning Village brought in nearly two thousand dollars.
To recognize their efforts, a special assembly was held at the school for the students. They were surprised when members of the American Legion were invited and Myles Taylor, a soldier who was home on leave, spoke to them about how much their donations will be appreciated.
There are many organizations that enable you to give back to the United States military. Operation Gratitude is a very popular foundation that works to send care packages containing food, hygiene products, entertainment items and personal letters of appreciation to our soldiers. There are a number of jewelry accessories that can be found on our website that donate proceeds to Operation Gratitude.
