TOUCH OF HOME Support 4R Deployed Military, Inc.

Veteran Owned Business | Member since April 5th, 2009

We have been shipping care packages to our deployed military since 2003. We now average 50-70 flat rate boxes a week. We are in email contact with each of our contact persons. We specilize in FOB areas where some of the most basic needs are hard to get a hold of. We send a "Sample Box" and a letter requiring a reply, so we know boxes are getting where we want them. When I hear from them, regular shipments begin until they redeploy.

Our "signature item" is a one quart ZipLock bag billed with hotel size shampoo, lotion, soaps, decks of cards, hard candy, small travel games, etc. We wrap each bag with a new pair of soft white sox with two rubber bands. Since we are unique in our regular contact with our heroes, we are able to meet special needs, sometimes. We were able to deliver over $3,000 postage worth of "Full Body Wipes" to a base without showers for three months. We send Beanie Babies for comfort of Heroes plus they give them out to children they encounter. Our heroes have mentioned keeping one for their own comfort in a pocket...for a "Touch of Home."

Our biggest need is Postage Money. If you have a loved one deployed and wish to get enough boxes to them so they can SHARE, check out Pay Pal on our web site and designate a heroe to get your boxes. You would need to email me an address and name to ship to. God Bless our Brave Military and keep them safe!

Comments on the Military and Business Ownership...

William Boone, was a Fleet Marine Corpsman in pre-Vietnam era. We are determined to support and encourage our brave heroes and to see that the disgraceful actions to our Vietnam vets doesn't happen to these heroes today. We have compassion and empathy with our deployed military. Our daughter has been to the SandBox 3 times with the Army so we understand the needs of our young people.
