I attended an event today in Nazareth, PA called "Quarters for the Military", which in part was held by the Blue Star Mothers of America. Now, this is the first time I have ever heard of this organization, but it is an excellent and worthwhile organization. So let me tell you a bit about them.
For those of you who have not heard of it, it is a non-profit organization, which was chartered by Congress in 1942, during World War II as an organization for mothers of active military. It is still quite active. It supports troops in the field with many different items, to help the families of the deployed, assist the returning wounded and comfort the grieving.
Even though the organization is for mothers, it does encourage all family members to participate as associate members. All donations and contributions to this organization are tax deductible.
This organization does make a difference to our active military and their families.
