We believe that being deployed and away from home is one of the hardest things of a deployment. Not only does a service member miss their friends and family, but they miss the simple comforts of home. Items that are typically taken for granted such as snacks, socks, and shaving cream, are often hard to get in remote areas of the globe where military personnel are located. That’s why BR Soldier Outreach exists. With the help of our soldier supporter and corporate sponsors, we gather comfort items, package them, and ship them directly to the soldier and his unit.
These packages typically consist of both standard items that we’ve learned these soldiers long for, as well as special requests that are specific to the requester.
Not only do we send them snacks, toiletries, and other items that they ask for, we send them various other items to show them how much we love them and appreciate their sacrifice.
Want to help provide item to put in the care packages? Check out the list of requested / needed items and drop off at one of our drop off locations, or we can come pick them up.
