TESTIMONIALS
FROM the FRONT: 6 Oct
I just want to shoot you a quick note. I have been meaning to do it for a while now. I just wanted to say thank you for your hard work putting these packages together. Your packages are what people want it’s not the same old bars of soap and foot powder (though when you need that stuff you do really need it). Me and the guys are now hooked on the Body Armor drinks and Fig bars. As soon as a box comes in they are gone immediately…lol. Of course they are consumed at a rate that is second only to the Oreos. In addition every now and again there are those cigars, they are a welcome treat. Please let all the vendors and those that work behind the scenes we really appreciate it and look forward to you boxes every time. Shawn.

From one of our Adoptees – and team of Bad Asses
I can’t begin to express how excited I was to receive your most recent shipment of care packages. We were able to distribute a taste of home to our Soldiers and significantly increase their morale. Though I can’t share details of our mission, I can say that some of our locations are quite austere and soldiers have very little in the way of personal comforts. Thank you for remembering us and for your sacrifice and service to our Service Members. V/r Adam 4 Oct 2018
