The KMF Stockings For Soldiers mission
Stockings for Soldiers is a Keystone Military Families annual campaign with a goal to ship 8,000-10,000 holiday stockings filled with food, hygiene products, holiday decorations, Christmas cards, and other requested items. Each dollar raised for Stockings For Soldiers helps provide the stockings and stuffers, as well as defray the cost of shipping these heartfelt care packages to our deserving soldiers stationed around the world who won’t be home for Christmas.
