About this organization
Mission
The mission of Packages from Home is to send care and comfort packages to deployed American military heroes who are stationed in active duty theaters around the world, as well as to facilitate activities that elevate morale of all veterans.
About
To provide food, personal care, and recreational items to deployed American troops, at no cost to them. In 2018, we averaged 746 packages a month being shipped to our heroes. We collect donated items from generous patriotic citizens who live all across America. These items include non-perishable food, personal toiletries, and recreational items. Our staff and volunteers carefully pack the donations into U.S. Post Office flat-rate priority mail boxes. The boxes are mailed to U.S. servicemen and women deployed overseas in harm's way. Monetary donations go towards mailing costs and/or purchasing of special items to send to the troops.
