Care packages filled with gifts and letters from the Malibu Optimist Club and Junior Optimist Club reached United States Marines stationed in Afghanistan just in time for Christmas. The packages were delivered to the  main outpost on Christmas Eve and were brought to the platoon on Christmas Day.

The packages were made up of donations and letters of support collected by the Optimist Clubs in December.
