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.

June 2013 messages from troops overseas

Below are recent messages from the troops in Afghanistan who have received care packages from the Airborne Angel Cadets of Texas.

I am planning on flying home this month and returning in July, not sure if I will be at the same place since the draw down has begun.  You have heard correctly, we have lost midnight meals already and in Oct they will go to two meals a day.  Snacks are awesome and will get us thru, peanuts, and canned stuff like that works, microwaveable stuff is harder to eat here.  ...  Thanks again for everything.   Robert

Sorry about not getting back to you as the Chaplain and I were out visiting our troops at a few of the other locations. ... We do have microwaves and coffee makers so we are good on that front. A few things that we are having trouble keeping available for our troops are Shaving cream, soups, crackers (like Ritz and Tollhouse), and non perishable microwavable dinners (like ramen and Ravioli.) Thank you again for all of your support. Mark

Wow... 73 boxes? You are all too kind. Thank you. We joke around with the mail people and they keep reassuring us that they can handle whatever they get. I take their word for it though. Thank you again. Ian.
