Help Bring Warmth to the Afghanistan Winter

The winter in Afghanistan is quickly approaching and the majority of locals do not have items that we consider necessities in cold weather. CPT Anna Talerico wants to make this winter safer for Afghan locals by distributing winter blankets.

Having started in August 2009, CPT Talerico has recently reached out to Spirit of America to help her complete her goal of distributing 5000 blankets by December of 2009. Stressing that blankets are one of the most critically needed items, CPT Talerico writes, “The winters in Afghanistan can be very brutal and very difficult for some to survive.”
