SUMMARY:NU Club of the Hudson Valley Gives Back - To the Troops and their Kids
DESCRIPTION:NORWICH UNIVERSITY AND THE NU CLUB OF THE HUDSON VALLEY GIVE BACK!

Join us as we put our Norwich values into action and make a real difference in the lives of our troops and their kids.  We are going to spend the first week of November gathering items for two very special causes:

Care package items for Norwich alumni deployed to Iraq.  We are hoping to build an amazing care package to send to the NU Club of Iraq.  All items are appreciated (no liquids though, please).  Special requests include cigars, Norwich memorabilia and items (you can order items here).  Gather any items you would like to share with our Norwich soldiers and we'll be sure it arrives by the holidays.

Toys for the kids of local deployed soldiers.  Any new, unwrapped toy for kids age 0-17 would be hugely appreciated.  We will distribute the toys via the Armed Services Foundation Toy Drive.  Help make the holidays bright for these special kids who will be missing their mom or dad over the holidays.

Here are the details:
