(NewsUSA) - Frequent moves and unexpected deployments are just a few of the stresses impacting the families of the nearly 1.5 million active-duty men and women serving in the U.S. armed forces. Along with the stress that comes with family separation, spouses of deployed troops left to manage the household alone face the added stress of tackling these daily chores with little support.
Volunteers can help ease their burden by joining Project EverGreen's SnowCare for Troops (SCFT) at www.projectevergreen.com/scft to provide free snow removal services to active-duty members of the armed forces. The national program is underwritten by THE BOSS Snowplow. Now in its third year, SCFT has 1,200 volunteers signed up to help more than 1,500 military families. Many volunteers are snow removal and landscape contracting professionals.
