Tucking in the Troops...thanks you for visiting
our site now under construction. To donate in central Illinois you can go to any Illinois National Bank
facility and make a donation. Any amount is welcome. If you donate
$50.00, which is the cost of the pillow and blanket shipped to Iraq,
you may designate an individual soldier by name or an unnamed soldier.
Donations may also be anonymous. Donors names will be provided to the
soldier if provided.
You can also donate with a credit card by calling (888) 241-8566. A bonded professional answering service will
take the information and all information is secure.
Thank you for supporting the troops from Illinois now serving in Iraq
and Afghanistan.
We will send to soldiers almost anywhere. However, we would need to know the APO military mailing address. More information is better please.
The first shipment of 105 pillows and blankets has arrived in Iraq. A second shipment of 60 has been ordered. We will continue to order and ship until all 190 soldiers have a pillow and blanket. As of 11/24/2007 we are 55% of the goal. Please donate today...
Watch for the volunteers at retailers around Springfield asking for donations! These dedicated individuals are working to support our troops now serving in Iraq and around the world.
