Donate to Troops Care Packages!

TM Design has been actively donating items to the Greater Frederick Advertising Federation (GFAF)'s Troops Care Packages campaign to benefit Any Soldier®. Any Soldier is dedicated to sending our brave servicemen and women care packages filled with their most-wished-for items. Our troops are thousands of miles away from home, family, friends and the simple comforts of life. Knowing that we haven't forgotten them is a huge morale boost!

AnySoldier.com recipient SFC Bruce Lyon, US Army, stationed in Afghanistan.

If you would like to donate to this cause, you can send items for care packages directly to TM, and we'll make sure they get to GFAF for the next overseas shipment.

Some of the troops' most requested items are:

• Propel and Gatorade packets
• Trail mixes
• High protein bars
• Canned, ready to eat food
• Letters of support
• Sunflower seeds & granola bars
• Dried soups (microwaveable kind)
• Microwave popcorn
• International phone cards
• Copenhagen
• Socks (black, thin, quick drying, water-whicking, no logos)
• Foot or body powder
• Facial cleansing wipes
• Hand sanitizing wipes (USPS will not ship the liquid kind)
• SPF lip balm
• Razors & shaving cream
• Body wash
• Shampoo
• Oral hygiene items
• Loofahs
• Q-tips
• Feminine products
• Deodorant
• DVD Movies (comedy, drama, action)
• Beanie Babies

There is a new unit, that asks nothing for themselves, but items for their guard dogs and needy local Afghan children. Those requested items are:

• Dog toys, treats and food
• Pens and pencils
• Notepads
• Erasers
• Rulers
• Toys without batteries (such as Beanie Babies)

(Please no chocolate because it melts, and no "questionable" reading material such as Maxim, Bibles, etc.)

Send items to:

TM Design, Inc.
5807 Underwood Ct
Adamstown, MD 21710

This campaign will continue throughout 2010.

Thank you for your consideration in donating to this great cause!

Construction at TM

Has TM given you some lame excuse recently about not being able to answer the phone because of noisy construction? We swear it's true! Here are a few photos of some of the "carnage" around here these days.


We hope that things will be back to normal by December!
