WHATCOM HOMEFRONT
Whatcom County's link to local troops serving in Afghanistan and Iraq
Our mission:
Whatcom Homefront is a 501-C-3 charitable organization dedicated to providing an ongoing message of support, appreciation, and recognition to men and women with a Whatcom county connection who are serving in the Afghanistan/Iraq theaters.
Since November of 2003 we have been sending regular care packages 5-6 times a year. The names of the Whatcom County connected troops have been submitted by family and friends and represent all branches of the Armed Forces.
The care packages contain food items, personal care items, reading material, cards, letters, and other small items that will let them know that someone from home is thinking about them.
A soldier deployed to a war zone loves mail and needs to hear from his community that his/her commitment and service to our country is appreciated. This isn't about politics, this is about sending a message to individuals who are fulfilling their commitment to go wherever and whenever they are sent.
If you would like to assist in some manner please contact us.
