Hearts and Heroes 2020
We regret that due to the Covid-19 pandemic, we have suspended our Hearts and Heroes program for 2020. We have pivoted our efforts to support local social service organizations that are providing aid to our communities suffering from food insecurity, job loss, and other issues due to the pandemic. Our community has supported us for years and we want to pay it back when they need us the most.Hearts and Heroes 2019
Thank you to everyone who helped us make the 2019 Hearts and Heroes project a great success! Our plan for 2019 was to reduce the number of boxes sent in November so that we could financially transition to support a semi-annual shipment schedule starting in April or May 2020. We hoped to send 50-100 boxes then to make up for the 2020 reduction ... then grow from there. The Covid-19 pandemic forced us to postpone all shipments for 2020, so unfortunately, we will be behind in plans to do multiple shipments annually.
Here are our 2019 results:
- 151 care packages weighing 2111 pounds
- 11 countries, 2 ships, and several undisclosed locations
- 31 units representing over 3000 individuals, including 700 women, in all branches except the Coast Guard (from whom we had no requests)
