Paying close attention to the 'levels of suck' is one of the cornerstone principles of the Airborne Angel Cadets of Texas. As one of our wonderful care package re-distributors in Afghanistan wrote this summer, "we send out stuff to the guys in the worst AOs" (area of operations). And he also prioritizes by "levels of suck" ... his words.
With more care package requests than we have products and funds to fulfill, we focus on those American Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen and Marines that we believe are in the most austere environments while deployed overseas. We believe this is the intent of our generous donors, and something we also believe is important.
Most of our care packages currently go to U.S. military personnel in Iraq and Afghanistan. A smaller portion of care packages go to other troops in the Mideast, Eastern Europe, and Africa.
If you would like to support these troops with some care packages from our all-volunteer nonprofit, we would greatly welcome your support!
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?
