If You Know Someone That Has Served In Iraq Or Is Serving Now, Please Fill Out The Form And Send It To John Rogers.

THANK YOU

The Yellow Ribbon Campaign of Idaho wishes to recognize and honor each combat troop, from the State of Idaho that is serving in Iraq or Afghanistan.  It will do so by making an individual Yellow Ribbon for each one.   Each Yellow Ribbon will be 2½ inches wide and about 5 to 6 feet long.  On it will be the:  DAY of DEPARTURE of leaving the United States, their RANK, NAME, UNIT and COUNTRY serving in.  To get a Yellow Ribbon, we have to know they are over there.

The Yellow Ribbon Campaign of Idaho assists family members by paying for the mailing cost of  CARE PACKAGES to our troops over there.  We are trying to help not only the troops but also their families here.   The Yellow Ribbon Campaign of Idaho is a non-profit organization endorsed by veteran service organizations throughout the state.  In order to gain funds for mailing of CARE PACKAGES, the Yellow Ribbon Campaign of Idaho is asking for donations for car magnets, lapel pins, etc.  All that money is put in a separate bank account.  Any checks used to purchase these should be made out to YELLOW RIBBON CAMPAIGN OF IDAHO.

                                 The reason why the names of the two stateside sponsors are required is multitasked. 

1.      To verify the individual is actually gone overseas and the information for the ribbon is correct.

2.      To update us on any change in status, such as relocation to a different unit or change in rank, etc.

3.      To tell us when the member is coming home, so we can have a proper Homecoming for him/her.

4.      To take an active part in the Homecoming.

 All stateside sponsor personal information is kept strictly confidential and not let out to anyone.
