Hero Next Door Contest.
We're pleased to say that the founder and driving force behind the Dog Tags for Kids was honored by being nominated for a Hero Next Door contest. This is an annual eventt held by Tom's of Maine which allows the public to vote for their favorite Hero Next Door. We're thrilled to have Rose Sliepka in the competition, and definitely feel that she is worthy of the honor!
Voting runs now through February 26th with the winner receiving $2500 and another $2500 going directly to the their charity. Those proceeds will help provide another 5,000 tags to our service members for their children. That makes for a lot of smiles, and you can be a huge part in helping Rose accomplish that!

Letters and Quotes
"I want to say once again....THANKS!!! Initially my son was not very
excited to receive his dog tag. I have to share his story....when his
dad gave him the dog tag he said 'No thanks, necklaces are for girls.'
After my husband explained what it was and that I wore them while I was
away, he decided that it was pretty cool and could not wait until school
on Monday to wear it and show it off to all his classmates. These are the little things that make as deployed parents smile and I am
very grateful for the small token you could provide my son and the smile
you brought to my face after hearing his reaction. Thanks again and keep up the great work.
