Welcome

This is a blogspot version of a charity that is trying to become a wonderful, wonderful thing.

At the beginning of 2008, a friend of mine and I came up with an idea called Operation Bag of Home. The idea is very simple. We make pocket-sized bags, fill them with small toiletries, powdered drinks, etc., and then ship them to our men and women in Iraq and Afghanistan.

There's just one problem...we're having a hard time getting the "stuff." Even though things like wet ones, tooth paste, and other items are inexpensive in themselves, it's difficult to build up an inventory month after month.

Does this sound like something you want to help with? Visit our command center at http://community.livejournal.com/operationboh. If you want to talk about ideas, ask questions or anything else, you can do that here :)
