USPS employees prepare care packages for military members overseas

Employees in the Postal Service’s Florida 1 District helped make the holiday brighter for U.S. military members serving overseas.

The employees helped accept and process more than 100 care packages prepared through Treat-A-Troop, a program operated by the Florida Blue health insurance organization and VetNet, a nonprofit that serves veterans.

Volunteers prepared the packages, which contained snacks, games and toiletries.

“It was a well-engineered assembly line all for the purpose of spreading holiday cheer to our brave men and women who could not be home for the holidays,” said Sherwin Salla, a Florida 1 District customer relations coordinator who assisted with the effort.
