How to Help

How to Help Every month, donations of money or items requested by the hospitals we serve help us prepare our shipments. Such contributions will be very much appreciated by all those that are serving under the Red, White, and Blue. Perhaps you represent a civic organization or school that wants to organize a drive or fundraiser on our behalf. Church groups, Boy Scout troops, American Legion and Veterans of Foreign Wars posts and auxiliary units, and Blue Star Mothers groups have been regular organizers of such efforts. If you want to send a monetary donation, please make your check payable to Landstuhl Hospital Care Project and send it to:

Sharon Buck, LHCP Treasurer 52 Seminole Trail Ft. Mitchell, AL 36856 How can I support LRMC in Germany? How can I support CSH, BAS, CASF, EMEDS, CCATT in the Middle East? How can I support Ramstein CASF?
Picture Used With Permission Items to Support LRMC for July 2008 Please follow the below list to a "T" as this prevents our hospitals and medics from a crisis situation with storage of unusable items. Due to the overwhelming generosity of many individuals, groups, and organizations, Landstuhl Regional Medical Center (LRMC) in Germany cannot--until further notice--receive any additional donations except those listed below. We will update our list as LRMC informs us of their wishes. LHCP continues to support combat support hospitals in Iraq, Kuwait, Qatar, Afghanistan and VA facilities throughout the United States. Please do not send hotel toiletries as we have no contacts that are requesting them. It is a expense to ship these to us and for us to have to dispose of them. If and when LRMC does request toiletries they are travel size and not HOTEL size items. Thank you. As this list will be updated frequently please do not pass this list on to another person or group. Please have them check the web site for the most current list of items. (LHCP would like DVD's to be the item of the month for June) Please consider having your organization do a DVD drive this month.
