Utah Moms In Iraq

Count down is just 10 days...  Traveling to Atlanta, GA to meet up with Joan and Fareed Betros with 6 other Gold Star Mothers and 1 Blue Star Mother and security.  Then traveling on to Paris, France and then a night in Ammon, Jordan.  The next morning we enter Iraq for a life changing experience!

    OPERATION GIVE Service Project
    This was one great service project. .This was something that I was so glad to do...We walked in the center and stacks of boxes waiting for all of us to package the stuff from home for the orphans and women.......We had a great time with the Iraq women…tying quilts as sister from other sides of the world.....Things we packed:
    Hygiene kits for women
    New born hygiene kits
    Educational and children's activity kits
    This was a very humbling experience......
