Judy Travis has long been there for our community and we hope you will join us as we enthusiastically embrace her run for public office!
We know her as a wife, mother, grandmother, small business partner, school volunteer and founder and organizer-in-chief of the Stockings for Soldiers program.
Please wish her luck and success as she continues her effort to
Stand Up, Speak Out, and Make a Difference in Delaware!
Judy Travis—“The Stocking Lady”
To her friends and neighbors in Brandywine Hundred, Judy Travis is known as the “stocking lady.” That’s because she founded Stockings For Soldiers, one of Delaware’s best-known non-profit holiday service organizations.
With her record of compassionate leadership and over 20 years of experience as a small business owner and community volunteer, Judy is the voice we need in Dover to cut wasteful government spending, repair our economy, renew our schools, and make our government open and accountable again.
Stockings For Soldiers
Inspired by her son Scott’s service in Iraq, Judy and her organization of over 500 volunteers have shipped more than 18,000 Christmas stockings and 100,000 pounds of needed items and supplies to our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan since 2004.
For her tireless and passionate public service, Judy has been recognized by organizations like Bank of America and Rotary International, as well as the families and friends she has worked with here in Brandywine Hundred to meet the needs of American servicemen and women abroad.
Judy never waited to get into elective office to serve her community.
In addition to Stockings for Soldiers, she has been an active member of our community for over twenty years, as a volunteer parent in five different school districts, with the Brandywine High School Lacrosse and Band Boosters, her sons’ Boy Scout troop, and with the Jewish Community Center, and as a Chair for the Selective Service Administration to name only a few.
