 Carolinas Hospital System is teaming up with the Wounded Warrior Project for the “Carolinas Military Mission.” This mission involves sending care packages to both active troops and wounded warriors during their rehabilitation.
Carolinas Hospital System will be accepting donations in the main hospital lobby every Friday from 8 a.m. – noon. Please review the supply list for items needed. We welcome your support!
If you would like to submit a deployed soldier’s mailing information to receive a care package, please register online, e-mail or call Tori Kea at (843) 674-2034 for more information or to get involved with the “Carolinas Military Mission.”
