Harris Jewelry Fort Benning Exchange - Troop Care Package 'Pack-Out' this weekend!

COLUMBUS, Ga. - June 14, 2017 - PRLog -- CARE PACKAGE 'PACK-OUT' WITH OPERATION TROOP AID®

Join Harris Jewelry™ on Saturday, June 17^th, at 10:00AM, for a special GRAND OPENING Event!

Operation Troop Aid® will be on site with donated goods and will need your help to package them up and ship 200 Care Packages to a deployed unit! Stop by and support this great cause!

Harris is not your typical jewelry store!  Each Harris Jewelry™ store is proudly decorated with memorabilia and photographs honoring the bases and units from the communities it serves.  Many have described their stores as a cross between a jewelry store and a military museum.  Their 'Fort Benning collection' includes interesting pieces - from WWII to present – including a Blackhawk helicopter 'flying' in the middle of the store and a 'Teddy Bear Training Tower' promoting Operation Troop Aid® (CFC#26493).  Feel free just to stop by and look – they don't charge admission!

In 2012, Harris began a new program called Operation: Teddy Bear®.  Its purpose was to provide care packages for service members overseas through the sale of uniformed teddy bears.  Their campaign has already raised over $875,000, which has been donated to support the military assistance charity, Operation Troop Aid®. And from June 16-18, for every military teddy bear sold at Harris Jewelry's Fort Benning Exchange location, the company will double its donation to Operation Troop Aid®!
