Trees for Troops Brings Christmas Spirit to Families at Fort Leonard Wood
On December 9, only hours after Trees for Troops and FedEx delivered Real Christmas trees to military families at Fort Leonard Wood, the base received a wonderful comment through their online comment card program:
“Today they did the Trees for Troops program again. I just wanted to say thanks so much. The staff was very nice and helpful. I was there alone with my 2 young children and they helped me carry and load up my tree. If it were not for this program we would not have been able to have a tree this year due to some financial difficulties. This was very upsetting to my 5 year old who was terrified that if we did not get a tree Santa would not come. So thanks so much for your time and efforts with this program. You made this a much better holiday season for my family.”
This is only one of many notes the Christmas SPIRIT Foundation and Trees for Troops staff will receive this year. It’s amazing to see how much this program continues to affect the lives of military families around the country.
