The Care Club is beginning its 26th year of service to the local community. Once again, we are working with the Fairfield Police wives in their "Project From the Heart". They seek donations of non-perisable items for our armed forces in Iraq and Afghanistan. They have sent over 3,000 packages to our troops overseas. Supplies or money for the purchase of supplies (and postage) are very much appreciated. If you would like a service member to receive a package, please send us the name and address.
