EL CENTRO, Calif. (KYMA) – In this week’s Military Matters report, a group of dedicated volunteers in El Centro are supporting our troops this holiday season.
In an annual effort led by American Legion Auxiliary Unit 25 volunteers, alongside Boy Scout Troop 40-70, packaged and shipped over 90 care packages to deployed U.S. troops Sunday.
Inside the troop packages are items like playing cards, handmade crafts from local students and other small comforts from home.
The organizer thanks the community and says small donations play a big role in letting service members know they’re not forgotten during the holidays.
