“We want to reach out to other military families to get involved,” says Carmen Serio of Marquette Catholic High School. “Packages are prepared and sent to soldiers wherever there are, as long as they have an address. It was the students that came up with the idea. I have a grandson in Kuwait and they wanted to help. Some students also had parents in the military.” A collaborative effort of St. Mary’s Church, Sts. Peter and Paul Church and St. Ambrose Church supports the effort. Donations are welcome. Individual-size toiletries, snacks or cash can be donated. A prayer and support group for military families has been formed and more information can be found by emailing cserio@marquettecatholic.org or krisandjohnkline@yahoo.com.
