Dylan DeSilva walks the walk

Dylan DeSilva, the young man who founded Cape Cod Cares for the Troops, continues to impress with his tireless dedication to the men and women in uniform. I’ve said it many times in the past, on the blog and on the radio, this is the most impressive young man I’ve ever met.

Dylan recently made another trip to Washington DC to visit with wounded troops. He went to Bethesda Naval Hospital and also attended a Wounded Warrior Reception. Dylan is planning yet another support the troops rally on Cape Cod, this time in Provincetown. Having attended one of Dylan’s events in the past, it is really a sight to see.

Sunday December 2nd from 12:30 to 3:30.

The Provinctown Schools wanted to host a rally for Cape Cod Cares for the Troops, so together we have planned another great rally. The Opening Ceremony will be at 1:00, followed by a few guest speakers, music, send a few video message to the troops, write out a Christmas Card to be sent in the care packages, free face painting/tatoos for the kids and of course we will be accepting
items for care packages!!! Be there and be part of our
“Cape Cod Supports You” photo, this photo will be sent in all our Christmas Care Packages.

We hope to see you there and if you would like to help or participate in anyway please email me. Thanks again for all your support.

From,
Dylan and everyone at Cape Cod Cares for the Troops

    As one of many Air Force members who has received a package from Dylan & crew at CCC4T, I’d like to send my personal thanks for the morale boost my unit has enjoyed. The letters and goodies go a long way, especially now the holidays are here. God Bless, gang, you deserve all the kudos!

    I have known Dylan for approximately 2 years since he came into the Young Marines. For all he has done and for all the accompanying notoriety, he is the most unassuming young man I think I have ever met. He never speaks of his accomplishments, leaving it to others to speak of and for him.

    It’s great to see Dylan and his organization on your site. Our Scout troop has been collecting items and writing letters for Cape Cod Cares for the Troops and their care package efforts over the past two years. I know the work they do is amazing, based on the letters we’ve received back from servicemen/women that had a package and letter from our Boy Scouts and the DeSilva’s. Dylan’s whole family has essentially diverted a major portion of their lives to this project. They are incredible people, doing positive, selfless work for our men and women overseas.

    Dylan is my nephew and I can’t tell you what a great kid he is! He is dedicated and hardworking with unlimited drive! I am incredibly proud of the DeSilva household for their tireless effort in sending those care packets to our troops. You are an inspiration to us all! I love you guys!
