Write a Thank You Note to a National Guard Family

I’ve mentioned in the past that one of my favorite sites of all time is Do One Nice Thing. If you ever find yourself wrapped up in your own problems, and you want to refocus to give back to someone else, you’ve GOT to check out this site.

Here’s the latest idea to help out someone else.

Write a note to a National Guard family that has a loved one serving overseas. Military families don’t have it easy. They live with the stress of family separation. And, of course, military service is dangerous.

Some support is available on military bases, but National Guard families don’t live on bases. That’s hundreds of thousands of family members. A letter from you would be nice. Then they’ll feel that someone cares.

Write “thank you for your sacrifice,” and anything else you’d like. Mail your letter or card to Do One Nice Thing, 149 S. Barrington Ave., #279, Los Angeles, CA 90049-3310, and we’ll forward it to a military family. Write as many letters as you’d like.

Be sure to visit their site every week for more ideas.
