Here are some great photos compiled over 2011-2012 by soldiers in Afghanistan who received our Airborne Angel Cadets of Texas care packages. Some of the Blistex, Colgate, Boy Scout popcorn, Girl Scout cookies, Emergen-C Energy Booster and Gold Bond Powder were generously donated by the manufacturer. Other products were donated by our volunteers and our many other great supporters.
The photos show how happy the troops are to receive the care packages, and may give you some ideas on what types of items are needed. Also, notice how many ladies are serving in our U.S. military. So products tailored for women (cosmetics, toiletries, etc.) are also good for care packages. (Click on images to enlarge)
