Holiday Care Packages to SCV Troops
We need your help to be sure our local Heroes overseas are not forgotten during the holidays! Santa Clarita Youth Groups are sending hundreds of Christmas and Hanukkah care packages during the month of November through December 8th. Winter care packages will continue to be mailed through January.
This heartfelt youth program and community effort has been proudly hosted by the local 501c3 non-profit Prayer Angels for the Military, Inc. for over 20 years. Their CEO, Suzon Gerstel said “care packages are mailed monthly, but we take extra care to make them very special for the holidays”.

Tax-deductible shipping funds, payable to Prayer Angels for the Military, can be mailed to 21609 Oak Orchard Rd, Newhall, CA 91321, or use the PayPal Donate button online at http://www.prayerangelsforthemilitary.com.
