    Dear friends and supporters of Operation Yellow Ribbon,

    Thanks to you, we are beyond thrilled to say WE DID IT!  WE WON THE WAWA FOUNDATION HERO AWARD!

    We cannot thank all of you enough for all the votes, shares and support.  Winning $50,000 from The Wawa Foundation puts us in a great position to continue sending morale boosting care packages to our brave women and men in harm's way for many days to come.

    We are beyond grateful for everything.  Thank you for being a part of such a magical ride.  We are so blessed to have your help and support.  Thanks to you, many more smiles on the faces of those who deserve it the most will happen.

    From the bottom of our hearts, we are so grateful for your help and support.

    For the Troops,

    Operation Yellow Ribbon of South Jersey
