“Sweet'N Your Day”
Darlene Clancy

Sweethearts for Soldiers, a California 501(C)(3) Nonprofit Public Benefit Corporation, is requesting your help in donating pampering items to our “Sweet'N Your Day” gift basket give-away. This give-away is targeted specifically at female service members as a way of saying thanks and to “Sweeten” their day. Active duty female service members will be able to enter to win on our website and winners will be announced on Valentines Day.

We need any sort of pampering items for females that make a lady feel special and gorgeous!! It doesn't matter where these items come from as they can be sent to our office and we will personally make the gift baskets. If an individual/business wants to donate a service such as a massage or facial, that works too!

We have 3 main drop off locations

       •   Jacksonville, FL -
            Darlene Clancy 904-608-7053
            Darlene @sweetheartsforsoldiers.org

        •   Washington D.C.
        •   San Diego

These areas are rich in military presence and we will do a drawing for each city. In the case of a donation made in the form of a service in an area not high in military presence like Orlando for example, we will do a separate drawing for that city.

In the case that only one military female enters from there, they will win by default. If no one enters from there we will look for the next closest entry. If something happens where we don't get any entries from a specific location, we will hold onto the donation and figure out a way to use it by years end either stateside or when we tour overseas (Iraq/Afghanistan).

Some ideas of what we are looking for:

            •   Massage
            •   Facial
            •   Bath products
            •   Gourmet chocolates
            •   Manicures/Pedicures
            •   Gift Certificates

If you or anyone you know could assist us in gathering these items please let us know. The deadline to submit donations is February 10th. Thank you for helping us to complete our mission of “Sweetening Soldiers Lives Everyday!”

Sincerely,
The Sweethearts
