I am here as a contractor. I am in touch with many families and have handled distribution of school supplies through my church and friends.
If you need an APO address to send more supplies through, feel free to contact me.
Currently I have no more coats back home in PA, so I’d better move to FL some day when I return. All of my coats are being worn by the citizens of this great but humble country.

Dear Rex and Lisa,

Thank you for your work. We would like to send supplies but do not have the address. Would you email it to us? Also, do you accept gently used supplies?

Thank you.

I was happy to see a picture of some of the school supplies I sent and your thank you. I have white boards but am waiting until spring because I know you have a limited area to store supplies. Please let me know if I should send more boxes now or wait.
Your web page is fantastic and I’m glad you and your wife had an opportunity to visit Germany. Thank you and your wife for your service to our country and distributing school supplies to the children.
Be safe and let me know what you need. Renee

I found your website after thinking about the climber you mentioned in your story I heard his story on NPR

Hello, I’m with the MacDill AFB youth center in Tampa. I’m trying to put together a community service project for the kids. I’m pretty sure we can do a school supply collection. Not so sure about collecting cash donations. Would like to help out.
