Operation American Soldier

The Beaver Island High School National Honor Society Chapter is collecting items to send to soldiers for the holidays. If you would like to donate items, please give them to a NHS member (Marissa C, Olivia C and Erin B, or adviser Connie Boyle). Elementary students are having a friendly classroom competition to collect items, so they will be happy to turn them in for you. NHS will be hosting a Fun Night for students in grades 7-12 on November 16 and the students may bring items as part of their admission.

Wish List items include:

Coffee, Tea & Powder Drink Mix
Protein Bars
Hard Candy & Chocolate Candy
Holiday Decoration Items
Playing Cards & Small Games
Canned Fruit With Flip Tops
Snack Pack Pudding
Tuna In Envelopes
Beef Jerky

The items that cannot be shipped are any liquids that contain alcohol (all liquid items must be alcohol free â?? shampoos, hand sanitizers, etc), no tobacco and no pork products.

If you would like to make a donation for items to be purchased, checks can be written to â??Operation American Soldierâ?￾.

All items will be sent to Operation American Soldier who will mail them to soldiers. If you know of a soldier who would like to receive a stocking filled with items, please give the name and address to Connie Boyle.

Please bring items to Beaver Island Community School by Friday, November 16th

Thank you for your help and continued support!
