Our Boy Scout troop has been collecting items and sending them to troops deployed in Iraq and Afghanistan for the past 2 years. We are working with a group called Cape Cod Cares for the Troops. They are an awesome organization. Check out their web site: http://www.capecod4thetroops.com/

If you would like more details, send me a PM and we can talk about how we started. We actually had a big success this year when one of the Marines we had been sending packages to came back home! He came and spoke at our Scout meeting one night, it was an amazing moment for the guys in our troop.
