Supporting Military Families Patch

Take the time to write thank you notes to the military families in your community. While their loved ones are away serving our country, knowing the community appreciates their sacrifice can make a military family feel proud. Older troops and youth groups can show their appreciation by offering to help out. Household and yard chores become more difficult when one family member is away. Offer to take care of lawn and yard work once a month. Babysitting can also be a great help. Host a fun event for kids in your community who have a parent deployed.

The Supporting Military Families Patch from MakingFriends®.com demonstrates your troop’s appreciation and willingness to help military families and could inspire others to do the same.
