The photos were posted on Frontwave’s Facebook and Instagram along with each group’s charity of choice. On National Ugly Sweater day, December 21st, the winner was announced! Frontwave’s Twentynine Palms Branch received the most votes/likes on Facebook winning their charity, Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society, $500!

Darlene Kercheval, Twentynine Palms Branch Manager, and winner of the ugly sweater contest stated, “Our branch selected the Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society because they are a huge supporter of our local military community here in Twentynine Palms. Our $500 donation will be split into twenty $25 commissary gift cards to provide formula, diapers, and other much needed items to help families in need during the holiday season and new year!”
