SAUL GOOD RESTAURANT & PUB JOINS FORCES WITH MILITARY MISSIONS FOR A JULY 4TH FUNDRAISER TO GIVE EVERY
SOLDIER FROM KENTUCKY A CARE PACKAGE

LEXINGTON, June 8, 2010- On July 4th, Saul Good Restaurant & Pub will offer ½ price on all food as an incentive to generate donations for Military Missions, Inc. Military Missions, Inc. is dedicated to providing care packages for every Kentucky soldier deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan. These care packages contain essential items (eye drops, foot powder, socks) and sundries (CD’s, snack food, video games). The cost of each package, excluding donated items, exceeds $20. In addition, it will cost approximately $11 to mail each package.

The organization sends out approximately 200 packages each month, but during OPERATIONS.E.N.D. CHRISTMAS each December, the number of packages sent out exceeds 2000.“We believe it’s important to let our soldiers know we have not forgotten them,” said Beth Pennington, founder of Military Missions, a Lexington based non profit organization. “The process of funding the annual Christmas care packages must begin now. In unsure economic times, we all must start early and dig deeper into our hearts and pockets to show our appreciation for our military.”
