Military Mama Network Makes Blankets

February 22, 2020 @ 11:00 am - 3:00 pm

On February 22 from 11:00 am – 3:00 pm, the Military Mama Network’s Iowa chapter will be coming together at the Van Meter American Legion post 403, to make no sew blankets and hygiene kits for local veterans.

Military Mama Network is dedicated to supporting members of the military, veterans, and their families. Throughout the year, members of the Iowa Chapter will gather to put together care packages, cards, and letters.  The Facebook group has brought together strangers from across the country for a greater cause to help military families get through tough times, something all military families experience. The group was recently featured in a commercial as part of Facebook’s More Together campaign.

The group seeks donations to support these efforts throughout the year and has started a “$3 Thursday Military Family Support” campaign. Those who wish to donate are able to via the donate button on their Military Mama Network Facebook page and in their group.
