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.

January Packing Party Recap

On January 21, we held our first large packing party for 2012. A special thanks to Daren, Rick, James and Jenell for their assistance and use of the USMP warehouse.

We packed 171 care package boxes this past weekend for our soldiers serving overseas in Afghanistan. In  addition to Valentine themed items, we also shipped snacks, coffee, toiletries, blankets, DVD's and assorted other items.

There are still roughly 100,000 American troops serving in Afghanistan.

For our troop contacts in Afghanistan who were not recipients of the above January care packages, we will continue to make smaller shipments throughout January, February and March. Our next large packing party is tentatively scheduled for the end of March, and will be coordinated with our receipt of Girl Scout cookies.

As always, thanks to all the volunteers and donors who helped make the packing party a success.

For those inquiring about our special requests, we now have a special request for a large number of pillows, twin mattress pads and sheets.
