The nationally syndicated talk radio show is kicking off their “Big Thank You” campaign this fall. The annual effort aims to provide every active service member deployed outside the United States with a handwritten Thank You letter on Thanksgiving Day. Since its inception in 2009, The Bert Show’s “Big Thank You” campaign has collected more than one million handwritten letters from the nation and beyond.
Bert Weiss, host of The Bert Show, said, “This is an ambitious goal, but that’s why we need the nation’s help. We know how important it is to make sure the sacrifices made by the men and women in our military and their families are recognized, which is why we want every single person deployed outside the United States to receive a handwritten thank you letter from home to open at mail call on Thanksgiving.”
All letters must be submitted by Friday, October 28, 2016, in order for soldiers to receive the letters on Thanksgiving Day. For formatting and submitting guidelines, as well as drop off and mail-in locations, please visit thebertshow.com.
