In just nine months, the Pepsi Refresh Project has directed more than $550,000 to 14 projects that affect the lives of troops. We've seen so many creative ideas for improving the lives of servicemen and servicewomen—from job retraining in New Haven to Girl Scout cookies airmailed to war zones. And with funding from the Pepsi Refresh Project, nearly 10,000 care packages have been sent to our troops abroad, with the goodies pictured below. To all our troops, on this Veterans Day, we salute you.
