The 23-year-old has teamed up with the Tarrytown YMCA, where they have set up a drop box, to collect donations for the soldiers. The Y is at 62 Main St, Tarrytown.

Some of the requested items include puzzle books, snacks, eye drops, body spray, books and magazines. Contact the Y for a full list at 914-631-4807.

Cash donations will be given to Operation Homefront, a nonprofit dedicated to supporting the families of deployed service members. You can visit its website here for more information.

Hart is also planning a bake sale to raise money.
