THE UPS STORE of Hatfield
Now Offering Free First-Class Postage for Valentines to Deployed Military Personnel

According to the Department of Defense, there are nearly 1.5 million active U.S. military personnel.  To help residents show their support and send messages to loved ones serving our country, The UPS Store^® located in Hatfield is launching Operation: S.W.A.K. (Sealed With A Kiss).

Operation: S.W.A.K is an initiative to deliver Valentine’s Day greetings to U.S. troops and veterans. From the first of the year through February 14, this location will provide free first-class postage (44 cents) for one-ounce valentines and letters to U.S. military personnel stationed overseas or to veterans in VA hospitals.

A handwritten card or letter is a simple way to pay tribute to the efforts and sacrifices of the brave men and women who serve our country.  Nothing compares to the sentiment of a handwritten card or letter
 

Eligible mail must be addressed to a specific U.S. serviceman or woman at an assigned APO/FPO address or a specific veteran residing in a VA hospital, and must bear a valid return address.  Cards and letters will be accepted through February 14.
