Air-Flow Lockers of St. Paul, Minn., a manufacturer and marketer of the Bagball, is launching G.I. Hope. This fundraiser directly supports soldiers and their families.

Citizens are encouraged to not only purchase a G.I. Hope Bagball or any of the related G.I. Hope products and use them, but to also consider donating a Bagball to a service member currently serving our country. With every G.I. purchase, Air-Flow Lockers will donate 30 percent of company proceeds to several military veteran support organizations.

The Bagball is designed to neutralize odors that occur in all types of athletic and equipment bags. After donating 300 Bagball?s to a local organization military care-package drive, Air-Flow learned of the benefits its product had for the military personnel deplored in Iraq.

In response to a shipment of Bagballs sent earlier to a military unit in Iraq, Maj. Shawn P. Manke with the 147th Assault Helicopter Battalion told Air-Flow Lockers "your donation was well-received by all soldiers within the battalion. The entire battalion and myself are sincerely grateful for your contribution and the time and money you invested in us."

G.I. Hope products can be purchased and donations made by visiting
