For more details, see the event listing.
On September 23rd, 24th and 25th, 2010 MooreMart will be hosting a Fall packing event in which MooreMart volunteers will be collecting and shipping brown bags (no larger than 8"x10"x3") filled with candy, healthy snacks, encouraging notes and cards to Members of our Armed Services serving outside the Continental United States. MooreMart is a non-profit volunteer organization whose mission is to send care packages to members of our Armed Services serving in the Middle East. To date MooreMart has shipped over 26,872 care packages to servicemen/women serving overseas.
This year MooreMart is hoping to ship a care package to every citizen of the State of New Hampshire currently serving overseas in our Armed Services along with 1000 soccerballs to be distributed by members of the New Hampshire National Guard. Anyone interested in having MooreMart send a Fall care package to a member of our Armed Services serving outside the Continental United States can do so by donating a new soccerball, a brown bag filled with items from the list of supplies provided here, making a financial donation which will be used to defray the cost associated with mailing the care packages and/or sending the servicemen/women’s APO address to Paul@MooreMart.org or Deb@MooreMart.org.
For those of you that would like to donate a bag filled with supplies, please note that the bag that works the best for us is a 8 x 10 x 3 gift bag (please do not use sandwich bags) which you can find at Michaels/AC Moores/Sam’s or Cardin’s Jewelers in Nashua. In the past we have either gone to the above referenced craft stores or called Kathy Cardin-Smith (889-0011) and ordered the bags in bulk. Kathy has ordered some bags for this event and anyone interested can pick them up at her Nashua Store (Cardin’s Jewelers 125 Main Street, Nashua).
In regards to the bags, the troops really enjoy receiving a bag decorated by children’s school/church groups.
If you or your group would like to volunteer on the 23rd, 24th (prepacking days) or 25th (packing and shipping) please e-mail Paul (Paul@MooreMart.Org) so we can reserve a slot for you. If you or your group are planning to donate a bag filled with supplies please e-mail Paul so we can start to order the packing supplies we will need.
