OUR MISSION:
To forward needed supplies to our troops overseas in Afghanistan. Until the closing of the U.S. Post Office in Iraq, we also sent many of our care packages to that region. The supplies we provide are items needed and requested by military personnel that are not supplied by normal government issue. We receive the names of these men and women from their family and friends. Special requests for needed supplies come to us through the families, as well as directly from the military personnel themselves via e-mail. A typical box sent weighs approximately 35 pounds and is packed tightly with a variety of items. One box holds enough items to service 10 or more people. Items included range from health care items to snacks, cereal, powdered drink mixes, hand and foot warmers, small games, and much more. The cost to ship a typical box is approximately $65.00.
OUR CONTINUED SUCCESS DEPENDS ON COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT.
We ask that anyone with relatives or friends serving in the region please contact us with their loved one’s name and mailing information. If there is a special need or request, please provide us with that information as well. We will do our best to provide your loved one and his/her comrades with the requested items. If nothing is specified, a variety of items will be sent that they are sure to enjoy.
DONATIONS MAY BE IN THE FORM OF CASH OR CHECK, PAYABLE TO “PAYSON SUPPLY LINE.” 100% OF ALL MONEY COLLECTED WILL BE USED TO PURCHASE NEEDED ITEMS AND FOR ANY NECESSARY SHIPPING CHARGES. WE ARE A 501(c)(3) NON-PROFIT CORPORATION AND ALL DONATIONS ARE TAX DEDUCTABLE.
IF YOU PREFER TO DONATE ITEMS, A LIST OF PREFERRED DONATABLE ITEMS IS AVAILABLE HERE.
Our mission began in January of 2005. As of May 2013, over 1,780 boxes have been mailed out and received by our troops. We have received many thank you notes via regular mail and e-mail, as well as many photos. These boxes are bringing much joy to the troops, and we plan to continue our efforts until the last of our military personnel leave the regions.
LET’S COME TOGETHER AS A COMMUNITY AND SUPPORT THE MEN AND WOMEN IN OUR ARMED FORCES. MAY GOD BLESS THEM FOR THEIR COURAGE AND DEDICATION.
