Please be on the lookout for Mission Possible Kids this Halloween. They are collecting candy for the troops.
First, on Halloween night, Mission Possible Kids will be out trick-or-treating with collection bags. The days following Halloween they will be collecting any leftover wrapped candy and sorting the candy for soldiers. Mission Possible Kids are willing to pick up leftover Halloween candy but will also have collection bins at First United Methodist Church beginning Nov. 1 until Nov. 9th. Please call Randee Green, 325-642-1202 to have Mission Possible Kids pick up candy. Mission Possible Kids are trying to exceed their goal set last year of 100 pounds of candy.
Mission Possible Kids will be collecting and sending all candy to the nationwide program called Operation Gratitude. Operation gratitude sends individual care packages to soldiers deployed in various combat zones throughout the world. The care packages include items such as hygiene products, magazines and letters of appreciation from school children as well as handmade cards and pictures. The letters build morale.
These boxes also include candy collected during Halloween. This candy is not only a sweet treat from home, but is also used as a tool to foster community relations with local village children, and is also given to them as “currency” in exchange for life-saving information about enemy troop positions, IEDs (Improvised Explosive Devices), and other important intelligence. The candy saves lives!
Mission Possible Kids is nonprofit dedicated to empowering kids to change the world through helping others.
