Neighbor Helping Neighbor: Care Packages for Soldiers
Carmel High School student and HamletHub Student Reporter, Chess Cabrera is organizing events to teach children and adults about mental illnesses. For April, she is raising awareness for those suffering from PTSD, specifically soldiers, by collecting items for care packages which will be sent to our soldiers overseas. Some of the items needed are listed below. If you are interested in registering you or your child to come help make the care packages, click here.
If you would like to donate items, you can drop them off at the library during business hours. Thank you for your support!
