Good afternoon, Gentlemen,
Here is a project I thought might be helpful within our state. It's on our CSR but I've not seen much contribution to it over the last couple of years.
I have attached a list of supplies given to me by the Bonham facility. I believe it's probably what every home would like.
On the homes lists there is a district so that the District Commanders are aware of their location. We don't need anything brought to Convention. The districts can handle the gathering of
supplies and distribution.
?Thank You
Jean "Max" Maxwell

Below are informational pamphlets Detachment Adjutant Kevin Winkelmann and I got from Camp Hope. The tour was amazing.
I believe Kevin is working on a line item in our budget to donate to the Camp. The QR codes are for monetary donations.

I want to say THANK YOU to all members of the Detachment of Texas for your support in our latest fund-raising effort for Boy' s State. I must say everyone came through in the finest way ever. However, we as Team Texas can't stop there. It is now time to move on to our next fund-raising effort. Our next project will be Camp Hope. Our goal is to raise $2500.00 by our Detachment Convention in July. Please send all checks to my home address and make the checks payable to: PTSD Foundation of America and in the memo section, write your Squadron/District/ Division number with the word donation. Finally, in the attachment it talks about the BBQ Cook-Off Camp Hope puts on in November. I believe this Detachment can support and sponsor 2 teams with entry fees and possible the cost of the meat. If you know of a team or you have a team, send me your information so we cna get you signed up. If any Squadron puts on a fund raiser to raise funds for Camp Hope, please take pictures, write a small report and send to me plus also to our VA & R Chairman Jean "Max" Maxwell. Your help is appreciated.
