Let’s pack 1,000+ smiles for our deployed heroes.
Northeast Florida shows up for service members every year—now let’s do it again! Join O.N.E. Florida Group (veteran-owned) for our Veterans Day Treats for Troops Packing Party. We’ll turn post-Halloween candy, shelf-stable snacks, and heartfelt notes into USO care packages for deployed service members.
