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.

Emails From the Troops!

Here are some emails we recently received from the troops:

Good Morning,

     We received the new shipment of boxes. We will get those down range.  I am working on trying to get a hold of  a Chaplain here on base and see what they can tell me of future boxes and them going down range. My unit and I truly appreciate all of you all for your kindness, hospitality, caring/sharing, and luving hearts of making us feel connected with the states and a feeling of the comforts of home! 

 Again, we are truly soo grateful for your generosity of sending comfort and different food options, besides the chow hall!! Haha!! Chow hall food isn't too too bad!! I am sure a lot of you are going through or have gone through sacrificies within your families of deployments. You are such an
awesome group and it's soo awesome you can keep it up and have individuals to keep the mission going!

     I agree!! It has been very nice hearing from you!! It's nice to have other people to communicate besides the usual--family, friends, colleagues from home station. !!

      Blessings and great health to you all during these holidays!! Yes, home soon--well..kinda!!! I will keep you updated once I hear more from the Chaplain. I will keep you updated on my
findings!!

 THANKS

Hello,

 I am excited to say that we got some more packages from your organization.
It is so nice to get something just before the holidays to open.  We got a lot of good snacks in this latest bunch and those tend to go quick!
As always, we appreciate the support that your organization gives us down range.  It makes what we do easier remembering that we have people back home that are rooting for us.  Merry Christmas and thank you again.
   -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We received everything you sent and it brightened everyone's day and made it feel like the holidays, especially the Christmas boxes. Thank you so so much! Our mail will be cutting off soon so we won't be able to accept any more boxes, although we sure wish we could haha. All the soldiers and officers asked me to pass on their gratitude to you and your organization. You guys are doing a great thing and we can't thank you enough. Have a great holidays and the best new year! 
   -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I just want to thank you for your support and hard work to keep our soldier's spirits up with your care packages.

I will be leaving here within a few weeks now and just wanted to say it's been a pleasure working with you. My replacement will be arriving here shortly. I will make sure for him to contact you so we can continue to have your support here.

Happy Holidays!!!
   --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If I may brag on you guys a little bit, I just want to say that you guys are absolutely incredible and everything you have sent has been an incredible blessing. As always, bless you guys for what you do and an extra thanks for the Christmas decorations and cards... absolutely incredible.

We received a letter from a  Marine Corporal who is a nuclear and radiological defense specialist and he writes  " I protect people from nasty things like nerve gas  and nuclear radiation. But much more real than the threat of chemical warfare, is the thought of being forgotten, uncared for and alone. AND CADETS, I must say you have done a much better job of protecting us Marines from those threats than I ever could in regards to the threats of the enemy. 

My family and many of my friend's families struggle to understand why we have chosen this path for ourselves but it is people like yourselves that really keep us grounded. We may not have it in our own homes, but the support that homes and groups like yours provide from all around the nation, makes us feel like someone is looking out for us. "

The Airborne Angel Cadets of Texas are proud to support our troops overseas.
