Lt. Gov. Becky Skillman Announces
"Hoosier Cheer for Our Heroes"

As fall begins and we quickly approach the holiday season, I want to show our troops how thankful Hoosiers are for their sacrifice.  Last year, we collected over 15,000 letters and cards for our deployed men and women.  Once again, I need your help to make this year's effort a success.

"Hoosier Cheer For Our Heroes" is aimed at sending our thoughts and prayers to our U.S. troops away from their homes and loved ones this holiday season.  I encourage everyone to write a note to our troops and let them know just how much we appreciate the job they are  doing for our country.


If you are interested in sending a letter of appreciation or a holiday card to our
troops, please send them to my office by November 17th or visit my web page at 
www.in.gov/lgov for more information.

All mail can be directed to:

Office of Lt. Governor Becky Skillman

c/o Hoosier Cheer for our Heroes

200 West Washington Street, Suite 333

Indianapolis, IN   46204

 

If you send mail in bulk, we ask that you do not put each card in an envelope, and please do not include any money, candy, or other gifts.

Thank you for supporting our troops!         

 Walk-In Policy Change

Due to recent policy changes at the VA Regional Office, we will no longer be able to process walk-in applications. We apologize for the inconvenience this has caused. You may still drop off applications to be processed, but please keep in mind that because of these policy changes the average wait time may take up to seven working days to process. Remission of Fees applicants should pay special attention to this time delay.
