About Us
AMERICA'S WARRIORS CARE PACKAGE PROJECTS
Our purpose is to let our American military troops on deployment know that they are not forgotten by providing individual packages of nonperishable food and personal care items along with hand written notes and handmade cards from children and other grateful Americans. We are a group of military family members, veterans and friends who get together to send care packages to our deployed military.
We are an official non-profit 501c3, a Fund of the Community Foundation of Carroll County, Tax ID 52-1865244.

A Wish List is on
Amazon!
SHOP EASILY & ITEMS MAY BE DELIVERED RIGHT TO PROJECT COORDINATOR!
If you have Amazon Prime, you already know how easy it is to use. You'll love being able to shop for our troops online. Items ordered through the Care Package Ideas Wish List may be shipped directly to the Care Package Project Coordinator, so there is no need for you to drop items off or pay extra to ship them! Send an email to CarePackageMoM@gmail.com for the shipping address to be used. Be sure to check back from time to time as items may be added to the list as we receive new requests from the troops.

Please select the "Community Foundation of Carroll County" as your charity of choice on Amazon. Then every time you shop, use Smile.Amazon.Com and a portion of your purchase price will be donated to the Foundation! This is free to use and does not increase the price of your purchases.
