Christian pop star Amy Grant braved Washington’s miserable rain and cold Wednesday to help kick off “Holiday Mail for Heroes,” a program through the American Red Cross and Pitney Bowes that sends cards to service members.
“I was the best they could get for free to sing outside on a cold day,” Grant joked before belting out “Silver Bells” on Veterans Day.
Last year the Red Cross and Pitney Bowes collected and sent more than 1.4 million cards to service members, veterans and their families in the states and abroad.
