Treats For Troops sends much needed care packages and life's basic supplies to our sons, daughters, husbands, wives, relatives, friends etc, who are serving in harm's way. We have 300 addresses on file of remote camps, hospitals and Chaplains that receive 69 pound care packages from us. Some camps receive more than 1 box a day, depending on how remote they are. It costs us approximately $1.00 a pound to ship these boxes. Simple math proves that we spend more than $60,000 a month in postage alone.
 
Our fellow Americans are serving in harm's way for OUR FREEDOM. It is a battle of survival for them every day and most do not have access to any supplies.
 
Rule of thumb: if they didn't pack it in their backpack at the time of deployment, they DO NOT have it.
 
 
If you Support Our Troops and believe in our cause, please make a donation. 100% of the proceeds go towards postage and supplies. Our organization is all Volunteer based and does not have any overhead or paid employees.
 
We prefer checks because Paypal deducts a considerable amount off every transaction.
 
Please make check payable to:
