Since Christmas of 2010, OPERATION G.R.I.T.S. has dedicated our efforts to show appreciation of the service given to our country by the military. Especially those who are serving our country overseas during the Christmas season. We hope that by sending as many boxes as possible that we will reach any soldier who may not have family at home that is able to send them Christmas gifts. What is a joyful time for many can be a very lonely time for a soldier far away from family, friends and home.
