Our Story

Support The Troops was started four years ago by one mother sending care packages to her sons overseas. After hearing from her sons, when they were deployed overseas, that other soldiers did not receive mail she was compelled to start sending to others as well, and even continued when her children returned home.

We have grown from a one room operation at her home to a donated store front with many volunteers. All of the items for the care packages and postage are from donations. To date 3000+ care packages have been sent to our troops deployed all around the world.

Some soldiers have families that are able to send them care packages and many do not. It is our goal to send a care package to as many of our soldiers as possible so that we can give them necessary essentials that may not be readily available and a bit of comfort from home. Those that already receive packages always share with others but there are many more that go without. We feel the need to continue to help those serving overseas, whether it be our own children, or someone else’s daughter, son, brother, aunt, uncle, niece or nephew. The many thanks we get from the recipients give us the motivation to continue our efforts, and we couldn't do it without all of your help and support!
