Posted:

By Jon Berg - email

With the recent deaths of two North Dakota soldiers, a nine year old Bismarck boy wants to send members of the 818th a holiday card.

Max Georgeson is asking for your help, making sure every member of the 818th receives a holiday greeting card.

His mom, Rena says Max wants to "FLOOD" members of the 818th with holiday love through a Christmas card shower.

Max is asking for boxes of Christmas cards and bubble wrap.

<<"The holidays are coming up and they don't get Christmas cards maybe and we just wanted to give them some," Max Georgeson said.>>

You may remember Max, earlier this year he was collecting snack boxes to send to soldiers overseas.

If you'd like to help Max you can visit his Facebook page, called "Snacks For Our Soldiers."
