(I-Newswire) November 20, 2009 - “Our goal is to make life a little easier for those left behind by the brave Marines fighting for our country,” said John Carpenter, president of the Rotary Club of Coto de Caza/Ranch Santa Margarita, said. “The holiday season is the ideal time of year for us to demonstrate our support to the military, and the Rotary Club is honored to play our part. By pooling our resources, our community can make a profound impact just by giving these families one or two fewer things to worry about during these months.”
As the holiday season approaches, Families Left Behind is requesting the support of local businesses and the community in order to raise much-needed funds that will directly help the wives and children of Marines now fighting overseas. Also committed to the cause, the Boy Scouts of America Troop 636 and the Tesoro High School Interact Club will be collecting donations outside local grocery stores.
The holiday marine relief fund drive will kick off Nov. 1 and continue through Dec. 10. Donations can be made to The Rotary Foundation of Coto de Caza/Trabuco Canyon, P.O. Box 80914, Rancho Santa Margarita, CA 92688. All donations to Families Left Behind are 100 percent tax deductable.
