Hi there. Some of you know I love supporting our armed forces. I am always so grateful that I live in a country where I can sell sex toys and lingerie without persecution. I love living in a FREE country and I assume my customers do, too. And, my Dad is retired Air Force. My Uncle is retired US Army and my Grandpa Bo was retired US Navy. So, our family is a military family and I have much respect and love for all of the men and women who help to keep our country free.
I have worked with this group a few times in the past 10 years. The San Jose chapter of the Blue Star Moms is a group of families who send care packages to our troops all over the planet. Last year, our Women’s Networking Alliance chapter made a donation to them. I thought it would be cool if we did a collection point at Curvy Girl and invite all of you to make a donation. I will give you a $5.00 gift certificate for one item or a $10 gift certificate for two items. I think that is about all I can afford, but you can feel free to bring in more then two items.
I heard from Margie Schur of the San Jose chapter and here is the list of the goodies she is looking for. They have a care package shippign off on March 22nd, so I thought we could make Curvy Girl a collection point until Thursday March 14th. I can drop off our donations on March 15th. Here is what they are looking for :
- White Tube Socks
- Travel size Hand Sanitizer
- Travel size Gold Bond Foot Powder
- Razors – preferably triple blade
- Travel size Mouthwash
- Travel size Shaving Cream
- Jerky
- Nuts/Trail Mix (individual “single serve” type)
- Cold drink mix (again single serve like you would put in a water bottle)
- Protein Bars
- Sunflower Seeds
- Raisins (individual packs)

I love these ladies and their organization and what they do for our troops. Curvy Girl is open Monday – Friday 12 to 7. Saturdays 11 to 6. Feel free to drop off any time between now and the 14th. Curvy Girl Lingerie, 1535 Meridian Ave, San Jose, CA 95125 and if you have any questions, give me a call at 408-264-4227.
