About:
Firecracker 6 is proudly supporting Hoosiers Helping Heroes this year. Hoosiers Helping Heroes, a nonprofit organization, prepares care packages and ships them to our troops in Afghanistan and Iraq.

Hoosiers Helping Heroes cannot make this happen without the support of our community. They have suggested since Firecracker 6 will take place in this summer, that we should collect items that our troops will need this Fall/Winter.

More information about Hoosiers Helping Heroes can be found on their website.

How to help?
Please review the list below, some of the items may be around your house right now. Then bring the item with you to packet pickup on either day. Firecracker 6 will coordinate deliver of all items to Hoossiers Helping Heroes.
