Pleasanton, CA – Today, the office of Congressman Jerry McNerney (CA-11) announced the start of the fourth annual “Holiday Cards for Our Troops” program.  Last year, the office collected over 6,000 cards from the community with touching and personal messages of thanks for our men and women in uniform.

The cards will be sent to troops stationed overseas in packages organized by East Bay Blue Star Moms, Pleasanton Military Families, and Livermore Military Families.  Cards will also be sent to soldiers recovering from injuries at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, D.C. and sailors and marines at the National Naval Medical Center in Bethesda, MD.

To participate in the program, make or purchase a holiday card and write a message of thanks inside to a service member, and deliver the card to Rep. McNerney’s office in Stockton or Pleasanton by Tuesday, November 23^rd.  Cards should remain unaddressed and envelopes unsealed.
