Just a few days ago John and I joined this organization to “adopt” a soldier. We are proud to report we now have three soldiers! It is such a great way to give back to our service men and women that are overseas defending our country. They do not ask for much… a few emails, letters, cards with words of encouragement, thanks or even just the regular ol’ news! They all love getting a small “care package” with some fun goodies, especially things they may not have access too like pringles, twix bars, salsa, q-tips, favorite toothpaste etc… Basically they would love anything that will remind them of home and will bring a smile to their faces. Please check out the website and consider adopting a soldier.

Adopt A US Soldier is a not-for-profit group founded by Ann Johnson and staffed entirely by a core group of volunteers. Dedicated to providing our deployed troops with the support that they need, AAUSS matches volunteers, just like you, with soldiers deployed across the globe. In just a few short years AAUSS has grown to nearly 500,000 volunteers from over 100 countries all dedicated to supporting our troops.
The United States has over 330,000 troops deployed worldwide
Many do not receive a kind word of support from back home
Thousands of miles away from home, many in combat zones, our soldiers need our support. You have no idea how treasured a single letter is! Adopt A US Soldier is dedicated to connecting supporters of our troops.
