How can you help our nonprofit send care packages to some of the most remote of the roughly 150,000 U.S. military troops serving overseas in 2024?

1) Donate Financially - Our greatest need is cash for our mailing costs. With no paid staff, we strive to maximize the use of donations. We are a 501(c)(3) charity, so your gifts are tax deductible. We accept checks to Airborne Angel Cadets of Texas, P.O. Box 116691, Carrollton, TX 75011. You can donate via credit card through our Click and Pledge account. Or you can Venmo us at NancyCarter@AirborneAngels.

2) Donate Goods - Our all-volunteer charity is based in the Dallas area, but receives product donations from across the USA for care packages for our Soldiers and Troops overseas. We kindly request that you contact us at support@airborneangelcadets.com before sending any care package goods.

Thanks for sending the 6 boxes. We received them this week. Thank you Nancy for your kindness and all your group for supporting us and sending boxes. The soldiers get so excited over the boxes.
Yes we are all still here. Nancy if you ship by the 13th or 14th of November we should be okay.
We can give as many stockings or bags you want to send. We have many local children that would be so excited to get them. The soldiers have touched many hearts and made many friends with the local Iraqi population by just giving treats and supplies to the children.
Thank you all again for all your kindness you have shown us.
God bless you all and your families.

Thanks again for everything you do. We have approx 50 in our platoon and a total of 180 in the whole unit with us, so if you want to send about 200 or so stockings, we will pass them out. That is so thoughtful of you guys to do something like that. We welcome anything you guys want to send our way and appreciate all y'all do. Thanks for all the support.
