Care Package Thank You Messages

Here is an email from one of our recipients in Poland. This group has pushed out additional supplies to troops in Romania and Bulgaria.

Dear Nancy,

We truly appreciate your continued generosity and unwavering support. Your organization remains our largest and most consistent donor—and that remarkable commitment has allowed us to provide meaningful and reliable morale boosts to our service members.

The care packages you send make a tremendous difference. Whether it’s a long day in the field or a quiet moment at the center, your thoughtful contributions bring comfort, relief, and a much-needed reminder that people back home care. The toiletry packs and wipes, in particular, have been especially helpful lately, as many of our troops have been rotating in and out of field training exercises.

Your dedication never goes unnoticed. The time and care your team puts into each box is felt by every service member who opens one. 

We’ll be sure to send more photos your way soon. On behalf of all of us here—thank you again for being such a powerful part of our mission to support and uplift the military community.

Warm regards,

Tara

Pillow Sewing Day 2025

A few of our amazing Angels, along with some Delta Airlines volunteers, got together on Wednesday, June 18, 2025 to make pillows for our soldiers serving overseas. Many brought their own sewing machines and set to work sewing the items. The volunteers that didn't have a sewing machine spent their time stuffing and pinning the pillows for the sewers. These pillows will be sent to the troops to help make their tours as comfortable as possible.

Here are some pictures of the event:

Santander Consumer USA Volunteer Day June 2025

Some great volunteers from Santander Consumer USA came to our warehouse on Wednesday, June 11, 2025 to help us prepare for our next care package packing party. They taped around 250 boxes and decorated the flaps on the boxes with "love notes" to the soldiers. Their service is greatly appreciated as it saves us time so we can focus on collecting, sorting and preparing the snacks and toiletries for our next packing party.

Thank you Santander Consumer USA for your support.

Here are some photos from the event:

Thank You Letters from the Troops

Here are two letters we received from some soldiers that received the care packages we have sent. The first letter is addressed to Sydney from a solder also named Sydney. It looks like soldier Sydney received a thank you note in a box from a girl named Sydney (we include thank you notes from various people in all our care packages). We don't know who wrote the thank you note, so we are not able to send the soldier's letter on to her. Maybe she will check out this post and will see the letter!
