Operation Support Our Troops Care Package Collection

For the second year in a row, is pleased to be sponsoring the Operation Support Our Troops (OSOT) comfort package collection to support those serving in harm’s way this holiday season.

Customers, employees, community leaders, local businesses, and even non-profit agencies/organizations can donate items at any MB Financial Bank branch through November 23rd.

The most needed items are listed below. People can also write letters to the troops and add those to the donation box. All donated items and letters will be shipped to troops in Iraq and Afghanistan. In addition, if anyone has loved ones who are deployed and serving in harm’s way, they can go to www.osotamerica.org/comfort-packages to register them on the OSOT comfort package mailing list.
