<p>I received a box in the mail today with two afghans and a letter. It was written by a Mom who’s son and daughter do not go to Kings Point. She had gone on College Confidential United States Merchant Marine Academy. She saw the request for comfort shawls, and it touched her heart.</p>
<p>Her Dad, who came to US at the age of 7 and couldn’t speak English, had learned the language and graduated from Kings Point in 1944!! He was always so proud of coming to KP and went on to earn many medals, which she enclosed a picture of the medals. This daughter asked her Mother if she would like to knit an afghan in honor of her husband, a KP grad. The woman in her eighties just finished two Comfort Shawls which I received today, to be stored and given to female midshipmen who have problems and need comforting</p>
<p>BOPS, WE ARE MAKING A DIFFERENCE IN REACHING OUT AND CARING.</p>
