3 Brothers Family Pizza collecting care packages for overseas battalion

Brian Clum: “I’ve been deployed twice. I know what it’s like after the holidays. It’s a long period.”
Posted by Fred Steiner on Thursday, January 16, 2020

Brian Clum knows the feeling of being deployed away from home during and after the Christmas holidays. 

“I’ve been deployed twice. I know what it’s like after the holidays. It’s a long period,” said Clum. “I want soldiers to know that they are thought of and appreciated.”

As a retired 31-year armed services veteran, the owner of 3 Brothers Family Pizza decided to do something about it.

This winter he and his wife, Kelly, started an organization called Friends of 1-145 AR RGT (EIN 84-3584886).

That’s a long title that translates in support of their son’s  (Corp. Matthew Clum, Ada HS graduate) battalion currently deployed overseas.
