Democratic Women Troop Gift Project

The Democratic Women of Sandoval County distributed 464 kits at 15 locations in Bernalillo, Corrales, and Rio Rancho. The kits contained all the mailing requirements to send a gift box to a New Mexican stationed in Iraq. 394 of the kits were picked up and hopefully filled and mailed so Christmas will be a little brighter for our New Mexico troops.
