The Fort Worth Chapter of Credit Unions is responding to a request to assist in sending items to the armed services personnel assigned to the 28th Combat Support Hospital in Baghdad, Iraq. Located in the city’s International Zone, the hospital serves our United States uniformed personnel and some local citizens as well. Being stationed there can be made a bit more comfortable with stuff from home not supplied as regular military issue! Please bring your contributions to the Fort Worth Chapter of Credit Unions Annual Vendor Expo on June 25, 2007.
