In this great time of need we must not forget about the children. My sister, Julie, is married to a military man — a doctor no less. I’ll pause while you swooning ladies pick yourselves up off the floor…
Through them I have learned about children being served by the medical staff at Bagram AFB hospital. This facility provides virtually all medical care for Afghanistan children. The children are deprived of the most fundamental necessities — shelter, food, and appropriate clothing to weather the harsh conditions. A web site has been created (afghanistanchildren.org) to inform folks like you of the plight facing these kids and suggest one little way in which we can help — donating old shoes. Yes, you read that correctly.
So, next time you’re cleaning out your closet, call up the web site for the latest mailing information and send your shoes to the medical staff at Bagram AFB. Thank you and God bless!
