A short shopping list for the troops

Posted

The Living Torah Museum in Fallsburg, N.Y., Camp Hillel and HAFTR are conducting the “From Day Camp to Base Camp” project, collecting tube socks, Ziploc bags, Purell, granola bars and baby wipes to be delivered to troops serving in Iraq. Those items, specified by the U.S. Army, can be placed in the labeled bins outside the Camp Hillel office at 33 Washington Avenue in Lawrence before 4:00 p.m. this Friday, August 7, 2009. Camp Hillel staff members will drive the bins to the Fallsburg Post Office on Monday, where postal workers and local families whose sons and daughters in uniform are in Iraq, will pay to ship the items overseas.
