Send a bag to someone serving.
For $5, a bag of Joe’s Jerky goes overseas in a care package with a thank-you label carrying your name or message.
The military has always been close to our hearts. My younger brother served two tours as a Scout in the U.S. Army in Iraq, and my father served during the Vietnam conflict. I watched my mother follow the news every day, terrified for her youngest. Luckily, my brother came home safely. Others haven’t been so lucky, and we feel for them.
I’m telling you this because I want you to know this is not some marketing ploy we came up with. When my brother was stationed in Iraq, he always asked for jerky. My father made it for him and sent several pounds for him to share.
We wanted to find a way to help, so we started our Jerky for the Troops program. Donations help offset the cost of the jerky we donate, and we think the troops like the added touch of a personal message on every bag.
Thank you, Jodie-Lynn Patla
