Ways to Donate

Donate Your Time:

Host A Donation Drive

You can organize a donation drive with your company, church, school or other group to collect items using our suggested list of items. Monetary donations can also be collected to pay mailing cost of shipping the items from the donation drive. After your drive is completed, you can have a "Donation Party" to gather, sort and prepare for shipping all the donations collected. To have a "Packing Party" your group can come to the Packages From Home Donation Processing Center to actually pack the boxes to be shipped. If it's more convenient you can just deliver the donations to our Processing Center. Please contact Nancy Schulte for more information.

Organize A Letter Writing Group

As nice as it is to receive a package, letters can mean so much more with word of gratitude, encouragement, support, appreciation, care and comfort. Letters and cards from your group of friends and family (especially pictures from children), are mailed in the boxes we send to the troops. You can take your collection of letters to a Donation DropOff Location or mail them to:
