A&M-Commerce Student Group Collects Holiday Cards for Troops

A person sits behind a table filled with colorful papers, markers, and brochures. A sign on the right reads, "Wish a deployed soldier a happy holiday!" The table has a blue tablecloth and two empty chairs in front. The setting appears to be an indoor event.

The A&M-Commerce chapter of the Texas Association of Future Educators hosted a table at the Rayburn Student Center on Nov. 17-18 to collect holiday wishes for troops deployed abroad.

The group collected 101 cards from students, faculty and staff, which will be sent to the United Soldiers and Sailors of America Christmas Cards for Our Troops program. The cards will be sorted, boxed and shipped to military bases around the world, and received in time for Christmas.
