The California RNC Delegation has organized a paperback book drive to collect books and donate them to the members of our Armed Forces serving our country abroad.
I will be donating a box full of paperbacks on a variety of subjects from history to sci-fi and I hope you can join me in expressing our appreciation of the fact that these brave men and women are placing themselves in harm's way abroad so that freedom can reign supreme at home. If you have any paperbacks that you are willing to donate to the troops, please either get in touch with me by freepmail. Books can also be dropped off at the RNC California delegation offices at 921 11th Street, Suite 110 in downtown Sacramento or at the CRP Convention at the Manchester Hyatt Hotel in San Diego Aug 6-8
Through RNC's Operation Paperback, these books will reach our troops in places such as Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan, Bosnia, Kosovo, Korea, Italy, Iceland, England, Macedonia, Bahrain, Hungary, Japan and Turkey.
Your help would be most appreciated.
When do you need them? I can spend some time this week gathering them together, find a box, and get them mailed Saturday, if nothing happens to divert me!
Sounds good. See post 18 for timing info. The plan is to mail them off to the troops from the RNC on August 31.
Okie dokie. Having a time-frame helps to light a fire under me. :)
Bumping.
Bump
They need stuff that will educate them. Just as well all do.
I mean: "Just as WE all do."
This one needs a bump. I've rounded up some paperbacks and put them in a box. I should be able to get to the post office sometime tomorrow.
Perfect. Thanks so much to all who were able to help!
