Let’s Not Forget Our Active Duty Troops

As a veteran, I appreciate the expressions of thanks for my service and sacrifice from civilians, yet I know there are thousands of deployed servicemembers that are far from home and the familiar, alone at the end of each day. As we celebrate America’s veterans this week, let’s not forget our active-duty troops on station around the world.

To that end, Support Our Troops has issued a national call to all good Americans to show their love and support for our deployed troops this holiday season by joining Support Our Troops' efforts to ship Thanksgiving and Christmas Care Packages to our troops overseas, and maybe a little piece of home.

Support Our Troops delivered over $40 million of tangible support to America’s military servicemembers last year with 97 percent of every dollar spent on services. We hope you will take a moment, right now, to show your support for our active-duty military deployed around the world.  Here's what you can do…

YOU can make a difference in the life of a deployed servicemember this Christmas.  It’s simple!  

• Just go to SupportOurTroops.Org and click on the Christmas 2022 Care Package icon.
• You will find a list of things the troops are requesting
• Read carefully the packages rules that are posted there
• Send to:
  Support Our Troops^®
  249-J Third St.
  Ayden, NC 28513

If you would like to provide items for future care boxes or donate to help pay to ship the goods, you can find everything you need to know posted on SupportOurTroops.Org.

As we honor America’s veterans this week, please remember our active-duty vets who stand guard for our country. Let’s do all we can to give them the support of a grateful nation.
