BR Elementary/ Parent Organization Holiday Community Service Soldier Care Package Drive

This holiday season we will be giving back to those who are serving overseas in Iraq.  We will be collecting items to pack in care packages for soldiers serving.  Classrooms will be writing letters and making cards to be included in the care packages.

Ms. Brenda’s niece, Kelsie Garrett, is currently deployed for the next 9 months to Camp Erbil , Iraq with a Medical Logistics Company which is basically a supplier of medical equipment and supplies used for supporting the various units spread throughout Iraq, Afghanistan, and Syria.
