Operation Gratitude
If you did not catch the blog talk radio broadcast I did this weekend, please stop by and listen to the archive. I was very blessed to interview three ladies who work with Operation Gratitude. In the interviews Carolyn Blashek tells us how a chance encounter with a very distressed soldier spurred her to start this organization that has now sent over 417,000 care packages to deployed men and women in our Armed Forces. She talks about the mission and how you can help!
The interview includes a conversation with a Staff Sergeant with the National Guard who has been a very instrumental member of Operation Gratitude since it started, and a chat with a Blue Star Navy mom who has proudly served with Operaiton Gratitude for more than 4-years now.
The stories these ladies share really touched me and I hope they bless you when you take some time to listen. You can either listen to the show on the player offered at the Blog Talk Radio show or you can download the mp3 to your player and listen to it later! Let me know what you think!

It was an excellent show! I love Operation Gratitude! I am getting ready to send a box of empty ink cartridges in for recycling and the money goes to Operation Gratitude - and it’s postage paid! A lot better than the land fill.
