THE WOODLANDS, TX - The Middle School (Grades 6-8) Student Council at The John Cooper School in Indian Springs The Woodlands is sponsoring a project to support the Texas Chapter of U.S. Troop Support Foundation (USTSF), an 501(c)(3) organization that supports military at home and abroad with care packages and assistance.
Dennis Bernhart, a director with the organization, gave a presentation to the Middle School student body and faculty at a weekly assembly on February 1 to kick off the drive. Bernhart explained that although it is wonderful that many troops have returned from Iraq, there are many still being deployed to Africa, Afghanistan and other parts of the Middle East.
During the month of February, Student Council members will be collecting items for the care packages, as well as monetary donations to go toward mailing costs. The USTSF supports all branches of the armed forces and will add any military person serving in a combat area to their mailing list, he explained.
