Sydney Adger, a first year student at Mt San Jacinto College, and a graduate from Paloma Valley High School, is organizing a Care Package for the Marines fighting in Afghanistan.

Residents throughout Menifee are asked to drop off non-perishable food items and supplies. The drop off point is at Countryside Marketplace, by the firepit between Chipotle and Starbucks, Saturday, December 11th, from 11:00am to 3:00pm.

Sydney and her family will be there.

She started the project after her mother's co-worker's husband returned home from Afghanistan, and was asked by his fellow soldiers to send some supplies and food from the USA. So his wife created a wishlist and started asking friends to donate. When Sydney was asked, she decided to take it a step further and get the community involved.
