Moore*Mart, the non-profit organization that provides personal supplies to U.S. troops serving in the Middle East, is celebrating its tenth anniversary with a fun contest for school children. Students can submit their personally designed patriotic drawings and cards that will be sent to military service members in Iraq and Afghanistan. Three winning entries will be featured in Moore*Mart's tenth anniversary packing celebration this summer. More than 40,000 troops remain deployed in the Middle East, and the organization wants to collect as many cards and letters as possible so that every service member gets one!
