Your Chance To Support Our Troops

August 31, 2011 By Dayton Most Metro 1 Comment

Operation Show Our Love, a non-profit operation that sends tons and tons of supplies to the Troops, needs your help. Cindy Millikin, who runs Operation Show Our Love, has received many requests from the troops themselves and they need these items IMMEDIATELY.

There’s a complete list on the website www.operationshowourlove.org but some of the more requested items (or current items we have requests for right now) are:
ground coffee, powdered creamers, sweeteners
toilet paper
Campbell’s cup a soup (soup in hand) in the cups you just heat up in the microwave
Any dry soup mix in a cup that you add boiling water to
Slim Jims/Beef Jerky/beef sticks
Drink flavorings in the little packets that you add to a bottle of water
Any candy not chocolate
any and all snack items that are individually packaged so they can take them on missions with them like nuts, trail mix, dried fruit, power bars, cookies, crackers, candy, granola bars, gum, mints….again, ANY individual snack items not chocolate.
Vienna sausages (non pork) , tuna pouches
DVD movies
Baby wipes
eye drops (for dry eyes)

Deck The Walls will be accepting the donated items at their location at 4015 Far Hills Avenue, Dayton, Ohio through Saturday, September 3, 2011.

At that time, Operation Show Our Love WILL pick up the items and ship.

Please feel free to log onto http://www.operationshowourlove.org/ to see what is needed.

Our Mission is to improve the morale of our Military Personnel who are overseas fighting for our freedom and to let them know that those of us at home care about them and support them! We do this by collecting and shipping donations of snacks and toiletries to allow our troops to have a ‘part of home’ in a foreign land, and humanitarian items to distribute to the local population to build relationships that will help now as well as in the future.
