S.T.A.N.O. Incorporated Begins Annual Donation Drive for Military Care Packages for the Holidays

October 18, 2016 by Press Release

S.T.A.N.O. Incorporated Begins Annual Donation Drive for Military Care Packages for the HolidaysWesley Chapel, FL (October 17, 2016) – Supporting Troops Area wide Nationally and Overseas (S.T.A.N.O.) Incorporated has recently started collecting donations for their annual holiday drive. Through this drive they collect a variety of different items requested by our troops such as hygiene items, candy, playing cards/board games, hand warmers, protein bars, etc. Monetary donations collected throughout the year are applied directly to the items needed and towards costs for shipping the care packages that are mailed year-round.
S.T.A.N.O. is a not-for-profit organization based entirely on volunteers dedicating their time and efforts to help a great cause. S.T.A.N.O. is committed to provisioning support to our military members who sacrifice so much for us by sending care packages, personalized letters and cards.
S.T.A.N.O. was founded by Paula Stano. Paula is a single mother of a United States Marine who is the inspiration behind this organization. After his enlistment, she quickly learned of how many of our military troops didn’t have any or much support from back home. With her son being stationed overseas, it became painstakingly apparent during the holiday season that these men and women would have to celebrate in either their barracks or maybe a local USO and not with their families. Paula would like to incorporate a program here in the Tampa Bay area where anyone stationed here without family or those stationed here whose significant other has been deployed would be able to sign up with a host family so they wouldn’t have to spend the holidays alone. Paula has a great passion of helping others and can’t wait to help those who help us live the way we do every day.
S.T.A.N.O. accepts donations year-round and always welcomes volunteers to help with the many events hosted around the bay area. There are several different levels of sponsorship and many ways you can help. If you would like to host a fundraising event, make a donation, or host a Holiday donation box in your local business, please contact them directly by visiting them online at www.stano.org. You can also follow them on Facebook at www.Facebook.com/stano.org.
