– For
security/ confidentiality purposes, the sponsor(s) will
be provided
with the first name, rank and birth date of
a soldier. (Any correspondence from the sponsor to the
soldier must be sent to SOS Butler, who, in turn, will
ship
it to the soldier.)
– The
sponsor(s) would be responsible for sending a care
package on a
regular basis for the entire length of the soldier’s
tour of duty (tentatively scheduled to continue
thru November of 2005).
– SOS Butler
asks that sponsors send their soldier a care
package once
every six weeks. Sponsors may send packages more
frequently, if desired. (Since the soldiers
have confined living areas and minimal storage space,
sending smaller boxes, more often, is ideal.)
– If a sponsor
prefers not to shop for items to send, ready-made
care packages
are available for purchase. Three sizes are available:
small (5 items)- $10.00, medium (10 items) - $20.00, and
large (15 items)- $30.00.
– Because of
strict military regulations and security concerns,
the actual
packaging and shipping of the care packages
must be performed by SOS Butler representatives.
(A $5.00 donation to help with the cost of shipping is
appreciated, but not a requirement to participate within
this program.) |
