We tell you this again and again -- because it's TRUE: We can only do what we do to support deployed troops, recovering wounded warriors and the children they leave behind because of the generous help of our sponsors, supporters, volunteers and YOU!       

As we prepare to ship our 750,000th individually-addressed care package this December, our efforts will remain focused on making morale-boosting differences in the lives of these military heroes.

After all, they're worth it! (We know you agree!) 
 
Each package costs us $15 to assemble and ship. Our yearly budget to assemble and ship 100,000 care packages is $1.5 Million. 
 
This year, with the addition of our Wounded Warrior and Battalion Buddy programs, we have requests for an additional 50,000 packages and with your help we WILL fulfill every request! Every single dollar donated makes a difference in allowing us to reach that important goal.

When you join in to support our patriotic cause, you become a member of our extended family -- a dedicated group of "Heroes at Home" -- like the wonderful volunteers in this news report!

 "I've been in the army for three years now and this care package is probably the greatest thing I have   experienced. I don't have a lot of family or friends who send me things so I am very thankful."
