What if you don't know anyone personally, but would like to send something anyway?

Carolyn,

Could you ping me if you get an answer to this question?

"What if you don't know anyone personally, but would like to send something anyway?"

Thanks.

1. TruthNtegrity has a good alternative in post #11.

2. And I can shamelessly point you to a list of the best and brightest from my
old hometown that is maintained by my old hometown paper (www.poncacitynews.com)
Just go to the list at "Project Hometown Spirit" at this URL:
http://www.poncacity.com/spirit/list.asp

Just scroll down the list and let your heart pick out a service-person. Don't worry if your
selection method seems frivolous, random and unscientific.
Maybe you'll pick someone who is serving in a location you've visited, or a place
you've always wondered about.
And maybe you'll pick out a female service-person because maybe (UNINTENTIONALLY of course)
our tough good-guys are getting all the attention.

Don't bother yourself about who you pick and where they are...but just pick someone
and even if money is an issue, just send a holiday card with a good quality
international calling card. Even if it turns out they can't use the card where they
are, your service person will have something to "re-gift" to a comrade who's
going on leave...

Just do it!
