Help Make The Holidays Brighter for Veterans
The Battleship NORTH CAROLINA is asking for help in making the holidays brighter for veterans. In the past 7 years, the community has come together to send over 11,000 cards to veterans staying in over twenty-eight VA hospitals in 9 states. To continue the tradition, the Ship is reaching out in efforts to build on the foundation and reach more veterans than in years past.
It’s easy. You create holiday cards wishing our veterans a Happy Holiday and a Thank You for serving our country. Decorate the front of the card. On the inside or back side please include your first name only and what school, church, or group you are affiliated with. Participants are encouraged to use traditional holiday images (trees, wreaths, angels, etc.) to decorate their cards.
Wishing You a Very Happy Holiday!
Thank You for Serving Our Country!

Bring or mail the completed cards to the Battleship NORTH CAROLINA (#1 Battleship Road, Wilmington) or Sunrise Broadcasting (25 N. Kerr Avenue, Wilmington) by December 14, 2012. We are unable to accept any cards after this date. We will ship the cards to the Veterans Affairs Hospitals located in North Carolina and several neighboring states.
Please feel free to spread the word about this great project!
