Monthly, the Central Ohio Chapter of MOAA selects active duty service members to receive “care packages” designed to show our appreciation and support during their period of deployment. Packages contain a variety of items selected by Mrs. Dorothy Williams, Committee Chairperson, and are mailed to those individuals whose names we received for the month. If you have service members in mind who would benefit from recieving our “care package” or have suggestions on how to improve our program, please contact Mrs. Williams at 614-423-7016.
