On January 16, 2010, Jenifer Kuykendall joined Carla Reed and her team at a Chili Cookoff at Jersey's Bar and Grill to raise money for the Coastal Bend Troops Project. Jenifer was able to donate sunscreen to be sent in the care packages through key partnerships with her Cherish Your Skin organization.The Patriot Guard Riders lead the sponsors with many active duty, retired and ex-military lending support as well. Friendly competition and yummy chili was shared for the support of this project. Donations and contributions from an auction raised money. 
Since Spring of 2005 the Coastal Bend Troop Support neighborhood group, led by Carla Reed, has sent over 6500 care boxes to our troops in the Middle East. Volunteers from Rockport, Corpus Christi, Mathis and even other states gather in Carla's home each month. Her passion for supporting these young Americans has kept the project strong. Visits from some of the returning soldiers receiving care boxes reaffirm our resolve to honor these heroes who give so much to keep America free.
Thanks for the opportunity to support this wonderful cause.
