The third and fourth grade students at the Cambridgeport School are collecting items for care package to send to our Men and Women in the Armed Forces. The students are working on this as part of a community service project and hope to send a seasonal care package to our military members to help them feel closer to home.

Items can be dropped between 8:00am and 2:00pm at the front office of the Cambridgeport School until Tuesday December 15, 2015.

The student chose this project because they want the troops to know that kids care about the sacrifices that they are making each and every day.

The students have suggested some of the following items for those who would like to donate:

Pocket protein snacks: nuts, sunflower seeds (different flavors), corn nuts, granola/protein bars, beef jerky, beef sticks, cookies, peanut butter, crackers, tuna or chicken pouches, drink mix singles, pop-top canned food, or ready to eat meals.

Toiletries: Grab and go hygiene kits (travel size toiletries), bath/baby wipes, body wash, body spray, deodorant, foot powder/spray, body powder, eye drops, toothbrush/paste, lip balm, sunscreen with high SPF, black or white crew socks, and

Anything to help boost Soldiers’ morale: letters/mail, current magazines (Motorcycle, Workout, Car), DVD Movies, music CD’s, puzzle books, sports balls or games, card games, board games, assorted greeting cards to send home, retractable pens.

Please consider supporting our students in this great cause, and thank you to the students of the CPort for working on this great project.
