Blue Star Mothers ofCoastal Carolina  An ear that listens...A shoulder to cry on...

Blue Star Mothers of Coastal Carolina has been the beneficiary of the Myrtle Beach Community’s amazing generosity in the past and we can't tell you how much we and the American troops, our heroes, appreciate it.  It's not just the items in the boxes; it's the reminder to the troops that outside the war zones, out there in the "real world", there are so many people who remember that they are there and that people actually took the time to send a little piece of home to them. Thank you all!
