Operation Gratitude Day is returning to Philadelphia for the seventh consecutive year on Wednesday, Nov. 8.

The annual tradition seeks to lift troops’ morale and bring a smile to their faces by sending care packages addressed to individual service members deployed overseas. Operation Gratitude care packages contain food, toiletries, entertainment items and personal letters of appreciation, all wrapped with wishes of love and support.

Since 2003, Philadelphia has collected more than five tons of items through this partnership, supported by PHL Sports and the Philadelphia Convention & Visitors Bureau.

ITEMS SOUGHT:

Toiletries: lip balm, toothpaste, tooth brushes, roll-on deodorant
Clothing: socks, scarves, knit hats, gloves
Miscellaneous: DVDs, books, travel board games, video games, Halloween candy
Gift cards from chain stores (such as Walmart, Target, drugstores) or from Visa or Mastercard
