Aside from supporting soldiers overseas, I have a full time (and lately, VERY stressful) job, I have started the process of having a house built, I am an Ambassador for Adopt A US Soldier and I am always looking for ways to fund the many packages that we send overseas.
I look for local events that welcome us to hand out information and offer items in return for donations. The items usually consist of paracord key fobs and bracelets, and recently I have acquired some very cute military themed bows from another volunteer, Misty. She's awesome!
One of the neat things I have started recently (with the help of my very talented mother), are military themed bras. I know, some may wonder why bra’s?
It all started when we made two bras for a local charity event that raised money for breast cancer awareness. It was only appropriate that the bras be military themed seeing as to how that is our main focus. The two themes were Army and Navy.
I am going to be making more of these bras as well as two more branches, Marine and Air Force. I would like to have one from each branch made in time for a possible benefit for AAUSS in mid to late May. We will be auctioning them off to raise funds for postage costs.
