Send Care Packages to Troops for the Holidays

Help to support our men and women in uniform by sending care packages this Holiday Season.

Military regulations no longer permit packages and letter to be mailed to "any soldier" for security purposes.  However, if you or your organization is interested in sending a package, names of soldiers that might like a package from home are available.  A list of helpful and useful items may also be obtained upon request.

For names and mailing addresses of Military Units in theater please call:

CW4 Tom Cannon, 99th Regional Readiness Command at 412.604.8320.

-or-

Master Sargeant David Beck, 911th Air Reserve Station, Family Readiness Unit at 412.474.8769

Additionally, The United States Postal Service is offering free packing materials to spouses and families of military members who are deployed overseas. To take advantage of this service call:  1-800-610-8734 (press 1 for English & then 3 for an operator). They will send you a free kit that includes 10 boxes, packing materials, priority mailing tape and mailing labels. These products are to only be used to mail care packages to service members. You must still pay normal postage.
