LETTER: 'Mail for Heroes' deadline is near



My day care children have adopted several projects throughout the year. For the holidays we are participating in the Holiday Mail for Heroes project.

We have signed Christmas cards ( those who can write their name) and mailed them to: Holiday Mail for Heroes at P.O. Box 5456, Capitol Heights, MD 20791-5456 to be sent throughout the world to our servicemen and women.

One of my day care fathers is currently serving in Afghanistan. We have purchased cards and handmade some and patiently signed our names to 320 cards.

We had to pay for a stamp for each card, and thanks to our parents who donated.

We want to encourage everyone to send cards by Dec. 10.
