Our youth are interested in sending holiday cards (Purim, if we get our

acts

together soon enough; Passover if we don't) to Jewish soldiers serving in
the US Armed Forces in Iraq and Afghanistan. Does anyone here know of an
existing project we could participate in? Or if not an organized program,

a

more informal way to send them?

Since that time, I have found this link: http://www.anysoldier.us/. Towards
the bottom of the webpage, you'll find a story about someone receiving
Shabbat candles, a prayer book, and some kosher food, and getting them to
Jewish soldiers. It made me think that if we sent something to the addresses
on this website, which are not specifically for Jewish soldiers, the items
might make it to the right person.

I'd also like additional ideas, if you have them. Sorry that the message
turned out blank -- the sent mail folder shows a fine message, so I don't
know what happened between here and there!

I started searching myself, and this is what I found -
the website seems outdated, but there's a name and address at this
site for the JWB Jewish Chaplains Council:
http://www.jcca.org/JWB/pastissues/winter99/frame2.html

or this one is Chabad run:
http://www.enduringtraditions.org/

It looks like they might be able to help. If you pursue this,
keep us posted!

Oh, here's one more, but it might be dated:
