Hugs from Home

Soriano • April 12, 2013

A white display box holds ten clear tubes with red lids, each filled with rolled magazines or paper inserts.
A “Hug from Home” is a gift tube personalized to say “Thank You” to our military who are overseas, and to let them know they are loved and supported during their deployment. The compact care packages contain everything from the necessary; toothbrushes, bug spray and deodorant, to the fun; magazines, cigars and puzzles. Cornerstone is proud to have participated for the past 3 years with
Morristown, NJ based Office Furniture Partnership . OFP has organized this special program in support of service men and women serving abroad for more than 5 consecutive years have distributed more than 12,000 “Hugs”!
In many cases, soldiers rely on friends and family to send care packages, but sometimes it’s the gifts from strangers, organizations and communities that have the biggest impact on morale. Other companies, families and individuals interested in participating in the next “Hugs from Home” can contact Bob Rigby at bobr@officefurniturepartnership.com  or call him at (973) 867-3403.
Thank you for the support of this campaign and our troops!
