Members of Netroots for the Troops will lead attendees in creating care packages after a brief seminar on how to compose them. Netroots for the Troops is a coalition of members from the I Got the News Today (IGTNT) and Mojo Friday communities at dailykos.com. The goal of this event is to create care packages to send to American troops serving in Iraq and Afghanistan; to raise awareness of the actual needs in the field for everyday items that we take for granted; and to show America one creative and positive way in which progressive bloggers support our troops.
