Books For Soldiers

Books For Soldiers - Carepackages For The Mind


In 2007, we shipped care packages filled with books, movies, music, chapstick, tube socks and who knows what else to over 17,000 troops. That is a record and so are our bills. Everything went up this year - bandwidth, hosting, rent, care package items and most importantly POSTAGE!

Now, 2008 is projected to be our heaviest year yet and we need your help more than ever. With more soldiers deployed than any single time since 9-11, canceled stop-losses, increased tour length and more work for our troops to do, our soldiers need us the most right now. Books For Soldiers operates totally on donations and usually this is a month-to-month operation. Please help where you can.

BooksForSoldiers.com is a Red Grail charity, a Not-For-Profit corporation registered in North Carolina. Books For Soldiers is owned and operated by the Order of the Red Grail, a non-denominational, interfaith outreach ministry and is a 501(c)(3) charity recognized by the IRS. (PDF Approval Letter - 2.2 megabytes)

All donations are tax deductible.
