Green Bay Family Sends 550+ Care Packages to Soldiers Overseas. Here’s How You Can Help.

Hannah Stillman knows how much a simple care package can mean to a soldier serving overseas… because her husband was one for 13 years.

Now, the Green Bay mom is making them for Wisconsin troops who are still serving. 

This fall, she packed more than 550 care packages with candy, beef jerky, hot sauce, nuts, and mints, as well as notes and drawings from local elementary school students. Hannah purchased the supplies with donations from co-workers and community members.

“I’m so appreciative of the community that we moved to,” she told local TV station WFRV. “It really moves me to be able to accomplish something of this caliber.”

This isn’t the first time the Stillmans have done this. Last year, they sent 200 packages overseas.
