The Kensington Valley Civitan Club loves to help out the local charity Desert Angels and pack "Miracle Boxes" (care packages) to send to our overseas troops. As a club we will collect donations that will put a smile on the troops face when they open their box, plus we will include a thank you letter showing our support. Each Miracle Box costs about $20 in postage, which our club will raise funds to cover this expense.
