Although the soldiers will know it came from Pinecam, your screen name on the item may trigger a correspondence with this soldier ? and after all, that?s one of our main goals and is one of their main desires. Try to contribute products that are individually wrapped to assist in the distribution of the items. You might consider creating variety packs containing a number of items a typical individual might use. And if you wish to establish contact with some of these folks, don?t forget to place a note or a card stating your screen name. Click here for current drop-off locations or you may contact the committee at tsac@pinecam.com for special arrangements. As each shipment is being arranged, specific items needed for that shipment will be identified in the topic announcing the shipment along with deadline dates for donations. However, item donations may be made at any time and will be accumulated until the next shipment is scheduled. As always, your generosity is greatly appreciated. If you have any questions about contributing items, please contact the committee at tsac@pinecam.com
