TEN HUT!!! Support the Troops Auction
I have a really cool banner that I was allowed to snitch for this announcement, but alas photobucket has gremlins and won't spit out my html code. So, hopefully, I will have it up shortly. Just pretend there is a really cool stars and stripes American flag with Support the Troops imposed over it floating here. LOL
Support the Troops Auction Is Happening Now Through September 1st
My blogger book buddy, Anna @ Herding Cats and Burning Soup hosts the Support the Troops auction each year. I had to give a shoutout to all my GR followers to help get the word out.
Here's a bit about the 'whys and wherefores' behind the auction:
Anna says,
The USO where I volunteer is at our airport. We provide a lounge where military and their dependents can rest while waiting for flights or if they've had a delay/cancellation. We have a playroom, kitchen, lounge and computer area. We also have an honors team that comes in to escort fallen soldiers coming through our airport and their families. We do welcome home celebrations and deployments as well as a ton of other things.
Last time I looked I think it was 500,000 who come through our center each year. You can find out more about what we do here.
The auction is to benefit our center and the USO of NC!
We've got a ton of cool stuff from books to crafts up for grabs. Please come bid on items! And if you can't bid please share the post on your social media. It would be greatly appreciated! Huge thanks to everyone who donated items! Be sure to check them out!
Charities that support the US Military are near and dear to my heart so I put up a print copy of The Darcy Monologues to the highest US bidder. The auction is open now through Sept 1st.
