Goal: The goal of this project is to give FCCLA members the opportunity to help their community by actively working to help service members, their families, and all that are affected by their absence.

Basis: Our military personnel provide for our safety and risk their lives in service to our great country. Since FCCLA’s main focus is the family and Ohio is the heart of it all; the State Executive Council has designed this project to assist the military personnel, their families, and veterans in our state.

Facts:

Did you know that…

• The phrase “military personnel” includes anyone that is currently on active duty.

• The term “veteran” includes anyone that has ever been on active duty.

• All branches of the military are considered personnel.

Sending Packages

Send all troop mail via the United States Postal Service. Visit the U.S. Postal Service website at http://www.usps.com/ for detailed information on sending support mail to the troops. On the USPS main website, do a search for “APO” and a wealth of information is available that will answer all your questions.

NEW- “ANY SOLDIER” will not be delivered.

Mailing information and Instructions The Department of Defense does not accept mail addressed to “any service member.” Use the U.S. Postal Service when mailing packages and flat mail to the troops. You can mail all packages by Priority Mail or by Parcel Post or a new flat mail box rate described below. Parcel Post can be cheaper but it also takes longer to arrive since they do not travel by aircraft withinThe U.S. prior to overseas dispatch. Please follow all restriction guidelines. Do not send anything of great value or items that are breakable. All packages sent to military addresses must have a custom form (available at your Post Office).

Priority mail and flat rate boxes and other shipping supplies can be ordered free of charge by calling 1-800-222-1811. The priority mail boxes come in various sizes and can be seen by visiting the USPS online: http://www.usps.com. For priority mail shipping, you pay domestic mailing charges regardless of the deployment location. Rates for priority mail shipping are zoned and the cost differs depending on your zip code. The average cost is $5.40 for anything up to 2 lbs., $11 for anything between 2 and 5 lbs., and $16.30 for anything between 5 and 10 lbs. Visit the U.S.P.S. website to see box sizes and other information.

Flat rate boxes are now available from the USPS in two different sizes. Maximum weight is 70 pounds shipped for $7.70. Priority Mail Flat rate boxes come in two sizes: “Item No: O-FRB2” is 12" X 3.5" X 14”and ‘Item No: O-FRB1” is 11" X 8.5" X 5.5". A supply of boxes and other mailing supplies can be delivered free of charge to your door by calling the toll free number above. You can also order “MILITARY MAILING KITS” by calling 1-800-610-8734 and requesting CARE KIT 04. The kits provide mailing supplies for up to 5 care package mailing boxes plus envelopes and custom forms. We highly suggest however that if you can use the flat rate box sizes for your mailings, that you do so because it saves money! Visit the following USPS website page for answers to many common question regarding mailings to deployed U.S. Service Members. http://www.usps.com/supportingourtroops/supportingfaqs.htm#H14. Depending on their location, Service Members do not pay postage on their mailings, so please do not send postage stamps. Cushion your packages with plenty of crumbled newspaper. Do not use foam peanut packing material. If you use popped popcorn to secure the contents of your package, place the popcorn in zip lock type plastic bags so that the corn does not spill out when the box is opened. Use plenty of shipping tape to secure the package. Put ALL food in zip lock plastic bags in case the containers burst in transit. Our soldiers say, “When preparing packages, assume it will be handled by a herd of elephants!” Mail Restrictions: Each country has custom regulations that apply to all incoming mail. These may include prohibitions on certain kinds of food or entertainment products. Military ZIP Code restrictions may change as military units move to different locations. You will find all restrictions for overseas military ZIP Codes in U.S. Postal Service bulletins: http://www.usps.com/cpim/ftp/bulletin/pb.htm. BE SURE TO READ THE RESTRICTIONS in the bulletin from the post office. Bulk quantities of religious materials contrary to the Islamic faith cannot be sent to military installations located in Muslim countries. Religious items for the personal use of the addressee are permissible. Pork or pork by-products cannot be sent to Muslim countries.

Hunger Education Leads to Prevention2013-2014 Emphasis

Goal: To increase knowledge and awareness of hunger and educate about proper nutrition on a budget.

Basis: Did you know that the food pyramid changed to My Plate? Do you know how many soup kitchens you can volunteer with? Do you know how many homeless shelters there are in your area?

Did you know that one in seven Ohio children will go to bed hungry every night? Hunger Education Leads to Prevention (HELP) is a state project that was designed by the Ohio State Executive Council and was created to stop the devastation of childhood hunger through leadership and service in families, schools, and in your communities. You can HELP by providing food, education and support in your area. All you have to do is volunteer your time while also earning a chance to receive recognition at our annual state convention. Using the planning process, choose a hunger project that interests you and involve chapter members in it. Fill out the Ohio FCCLA Program Award Application, which can be found in the State Projects section of the Information and Forms Book, and submit it to Ohio FCCLA by March 1.

OHIO FCCLA: RESPECT

“We hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal.” The opening words ofthe Declaration of Independence marked the beginning of our nationhood and a destination too.The diverse people of our nation are obviously not equal, but through the sacrifice andpersistence of those who believe, we can move closer to a national ideal of equality for all.

Goals- To increase awareness and appreciation of all people.- To embrace differences of individuals- To provide opportunities to reflect on the diversity of others- To recognize and respect individual dignities- To make a positive impact in the community- To support human dignity, equality, and safety-To increase awareness and support for those whom have physical or mental ailments that other do not

BasisFCCLA: RESPECT is a state project designed by the 2005-2006 State Executive Council and wascreated to celebrate diversity. Some areas that will be explored in this project include age, gender,education, heritage, disability and social economic background. FCCLA members will understandthe impact of their actions on others, assess the accuracy of their knowledge about differences, limitthe influence of stereotypes, transform knowledge into support and empathy, and embrace diversityas a source of organizational strength.

Project Ideas- Hold a culture fair- Have a meeting with different cultures to share views, practices, food and music- Design a project limiting Cliques- Design a project around disabilities and helping limit negative views about them- Dating abuse- Cell phone etiquette- Design a project working with different age groups- Partner up with more diverse school-Volunteer at your counties Special Olympics- Raise money to support the Special Olympics

Ohio FCCLA Cancer CampaignGoals:• For research development• Support Cancer patients and families• Raise financial support• To educate youth and adults Project Basis:The State Executive Council and Ohio FCCLA want to support cancer patients and their families in the fight against cancer. Cancer doesn’t discriminate against race, religion, or gender. Cancer is real and claims the lives of thousands every year. Project Ideas:- Host a cancer costume walk during Halloween- Bake sale- Hold a cancer awareness week at your school- Set up a Volley for a Cure fundraiser at your school- Benefit dinner for a family affected in your community- Derma scan to show the affects the sun has on your skin.- A tobacco free pledge from students in your school to bring awareness of tobacco’s role in lung cancer. Facts:- There are more than 200 different forms of known cancer.- Cancer isn’t just one disease; it’s a group of a thousand diseases that attack a group of cells.- The form of cancer is usually named after the organ it attacks.- There is no known cure for cancer.- Skin cancer is the most common form.- 13 percent of all deaths worldwide occur from cancer. That is an estimated 7.6 million.- One in three people will contract cancer.- One in four people will die from cancer. The goal of this state project is to educate the public on the effects that cancer has on patients and families, and the preventative steps you can take to fight against cancer. This state project also tackles the task of raising money to support families who have been affected by the disease and to give them the support they need emotionally and financially. With projects such as these we hope to aid the development of cancer research to create a cure for this vicious disease.

Project Ideas: At Home • Form car pools • Find Travel Smart Methods of Traveling • Have a Gas Review Week (To see how much gas is being used in a household) • Recycle plastic bags • Reusable bags

At School • Sponsor an “Earth Month”- April Earth Day (April 22) • Arbor Day (Last Friday in April) • Organize walks throughout town and country to pick up trash and recyclables • Park Clean-Ups • Initiate Recycling Programs (Including E-Waste Drives-Bring to Correct Facilities) • Plant a garden and/or trees

Community • Recycle metal cans, e-waste, plastics, paper, glass • Sponsor a Community Clean-Up • National Arbor and Earth Day • Pop tabs for Ronald McDonald• Cell phones for abuse shelters

Facts:• On the average, the 140 million cars in America are estimated to travel almost 4 billion miles in

a day, and according to the Department of Transportation, they use over 200 million gallons of gasoline doing it.

• Every day 50 to 100 species of plants and animals become extinct as their habitat and human influences destroy them.

• 63,000 square miles of rain forests are being destroyed each year. • Every year some 45,000 tons of plastic waste are dumped into the world's oceans. One of the

results of this is that up to one million seabirds and one hundred thousand marine mammals are killed each year by plastic trash such as fishing gear, six-pack yokes, sandwich bags, and Styrofoam cups.
