My husband and I do not have any children. He is a retired CMSgt in the Air Force and we live in New Braunfels. We have a good friend who works with Soldiers' Angels. I received an email about your adopt a family at Christmas. I called my friend asking her opinion about the program and she indicated she has adopted families. So I applied for the program and selected a family of five who live on Ft Sam. They have three young children and it has been an absolute joy to shop for the family (especially shopping for children). We delivered the presents to the family and was able to visit with them. We try to stay in contact with them. AND, I got the birth dates of the children so am sending them presents on their special day. We found out that the youngest child's birthday is the same as my husband, and the second oldest birthday is the same as mine. So this whole process has been a joy and fun.

My experience as a volunteer photographer with Soldiers' Angels has been one of both contribution and continuous growth. The intentional pursuit of capturing the best moments, brightest smiles, and meaningful situations brings me a deep sense of fulfillment, both professionally and personally.

In every interaction, I donate my time, some resources, and talents, but I receive so much more. For that, my gratitude to every military member, every veteran with their families, every volunteer colleague, and leaders of Soldier's Angels in this amazing experience.

Soldiers’ Angels is more than just a non-profit—it’s a community, a support system, and a beacon of hope for military members, veterans, and those who serve them. Beyond their incredible efforts to support the military and veteran communities, they actively employ and assist veterans transitioning into the workforce. Their internship program provides invaluable opportunities for veterans to build skills, grow, and achieve lasting success.

With both virtual and in-person volunteer opportunities available nationwide and globally, there is a place for everyone to make a difference. Soldiers’ Angels has profoundly impacted my life—not only through their recognition and support but also by helping me navigate one of my darkest times. When I felt no hope, they were there, strengthening my mental health and reminding me of my purpose.

If you're looking for a way to give back, find healing, or be part of something greater, Soldiers’ Angels is the place to be.

I'm on the healthy request to sign up and I seem to have a problem with the "date of birth" Do I scroll thru till I reach my date of birth or is there an easier way?

It sounds like a great program. We signed up for it because our local food pantry doesn’t give a lot of food and it doesn’t last very long.But the first month we weren’t able to make it because of the weather. They had a reschedule, but we were never called on the waitlist. And then the next month we were no longer eligible because my husband passed away. Sounds like a great program, but my only wish is that the program helped out veteran families once the veteran passed away as well. Because there’s just not enough resources

Our deepest condolences on the passing of your husband. We are truly sorry for your loss and understand the challenges you may be facing during this difficult time. We regret that you were unable to attend our event and completely understand your concerns. Unfortunately, due to the overwhelming need within the Military and Veteran community, we must maintain specific eligibility parameters to ensure we can assist as many individuals as possible. As you may have seen while on the waitlist, the Atlanta food distribution event is at full capacity, reflecting the significant demand for support in the area. We recognize this need and are actively working to expand our reach to serve more Service Members and Veterans in the future.

I found out about Soldiers Angels from another soldier in Transitional housing after being homeless for eight months. I have continued utilizing this resource and it has helped me so much. Even more so when I took custody of one of my grandchildren 3.5 years ago. Everyone is ALWAYS friendly, happy to see me and always let's me know that I matter and make a difference. I was hesitant at first, as we all are, as Veterans I am sure. We are so independent, and I am glad I took the chance and took advantage of this resource. THANK YOU Soldiers Angels!!

Soldiers’ Angels is truly an incredible organization! Their dedication to supporting Deployed Service Members, Veterans, and Military families is unmatched. From sending care packages, baked goodies, and letters to deployed Service Members to providing support to Veterans in VA hospitals, they ensure no hero feels forgotten. Their Adopt-A-Family program brings joy to military families during the holidays and their Military and Veteran Food Distributions help Veterans and Military families with food insecurity. Their Volunteers are compassionate and committed. I’m honored to be part of such a meaningful mission. If you’re looking for a way to give back to those who serve, Soldiers’ Angels is the perfect place to start!

The Soldiers' Angels Veteran Internship program hasn't just changed my life but SAVED it. It started as one piece of candy and a stocking at a time. At rock bottom, these very Angels helped me to sit up, take a knee, stand on my feet, walk in my purpose, and eventually take flight. As a disabled, retired Veteran, having an opportunity to play a part in the impact our programs provide still evokes emotion. Every tear has been in admiration of the Military communities we serve and the Angels who put all hands in with passion, dedication, and humble reverence. "May no soldier go unloved | May no soldier walk alone | May no soldier be forgotten | Even after they come home.™" is more than an ethos. Even to use that word is a gross understatement. For Soldiers' Angels, it's every breath, every step, every minute of the mission in action - and THEY GET THE JOB DONE.

I can never thank this amazing organization for all they’ve done to assist my family and I. 2020-2024 were some of the worst years we experienced as a family. So trying to financially bounce back from a divorce, where I was responsible and the primary for all bills, had left me in a bind as I’m trying to catch up on everything past due while maintaining my livelihood. But then this amazing organization in clutch for Christmas. I would have maybe been able to get my girls and granddaughter 1-2 gifts total and they wouldn’t have been the best if I’m being truly transparent. Soldiers Angels came through and provided gifts for my girls and granddaughter that actually filled up the bottom of our Christmas tree. To see my girls faces light up, especially after the year they experienced, and enjoying the amazing gifts is something I will never forget. God bless you all and please continue all the amazing work.

Soldiers angels Make it extremely difficult to sign up for anything. I was in close contact with a person from their company and their website was down the entire time I was supposed to be signing up for My family and I to be adopted as a veteran. This lady I've been speaking to knew this and once the website was up, it was like a holiday miracle, signing up to be adopted was conveniently closed. The lady basically told me you're just out of luck sorry about you have a good day and ignored me. That was it. They will not let me sign up for anything and there's been several times here where I've not been able to sign up because their website is junk. And even though I was in close contact with this lady, until the site conveniently went down every time I tried to sign up,everything that I try to sign up for is always," well we're sorry about your luck". I've begged for assistance and been denied almost instantly every time.

I started volunteering with Soldiers Angels in August 2024 when my 55+ community collected socks for soldiers and veterans. we collected over 1,500 pairs of socks. Then I registered to be a volunteer. First I watered the garden and the VA Poly Trauma Center on Saturdays. I then sent birthday cards and letters to deployed troops, participated in a virtual baby shower for a deployed servicemen's wife, sent a couple of boxes full of goodies to soldiers and made 20 Thanksgiving cards for service members not able to be home for Thanksgiving. This all felt really good so I was committed to help every month in some way. Then I saw a request asking that a card of encouragement be sent to a veteran going through a hard time and needed encouragement. The request was not from the veteran but it was heartfelt. I decided to put together a great big caring box for this veteran and his child along with a letter of encouragement. 3 weeks later I received the most beautiful thank you letter I have ever read. It totally filled my heart and showed me how much simple things can mean to someone who has given everything for this country. It doesn't matter how much each of us does, it just matters that each of us do something. This is a fantastic organization to work with to do that something.

The help provided,, allows my family to eat.. Food stamp reduction has made it hard to feed family... This event helps alot.. Sadly,, the VA has ended the rideshare transportation to and from the event for Vets.. which is another means of reducing support for us and forcing private means to aid us VETS..
This event which is supported by NON-GOV-NON VA supporters provides a pinpointed service for us who served under the blanket of false factors our Government provided when we joined...
As a Single parent Vet... I thank SOLDIERS ANGELS for there service... as our Government continuously finds reasons to reduce providing for us..... Thank you for your service

I had the card people mail cards to a vet that needed cheered up and it really helped him to know that so many people would take time out for him. My son did23 years in the marine corps and I know how they struggle just tomake ends meet. It was so important to him and his family to know that people really cared about our military personal.

Soldiers' Angels clearly consistently lives out their passion for serving our nation's military personnel. Although I never served, I have tremendous respect for how they go about what they do in finding unique ways to reach out and touch those who do or have. I am also impressed by the very high percentage of their donations that go directly to their intended audience, rather than having a large chunk used for administrative and fundraising purposes. It really means a lot that nearly all of the money my wife and I donate to Soldiers' Angels goes directly to those they are serving.

I started volunteering when my son joined the USAF. I sew quilts, pillowcases, and walker bags for Soldiers' Angels. Whenever I share information about my volunteer role with others, they are eager to know more. I've "recruited" other volunteers to send care packages and cards to deployed servicemen and women.
The time and love I put into sewing projects for Soldiers' Angels helps me cope with the anxiety of having my son deployed as conflicts rise on the world stage. I know what I'm sewing will go to another mom's son or daughter, and let them know people back home are always with them in spirit.

Great coordination. It’s well organized event. The volunteers are courteous and always thank a veteran for their service. The food options are beyond belief and the amount of food that they provide are absolutely shocking and well appreciated. I know I do whoever started the Soldiers Angels We would like to thank them and let them know that I was Veterans that concerns for United States veterans of America.

Very friendly and kind participants, welcomed with smiles. Only issue was times are during business hours which makes rushing to location while trying to find work and at work difficult. Also contacting individuals to know exact location of distribution was difficult

So sorry to hear that you had some issues with the event! Be sure to keep an eye on your email! The email message from registration has the exact address of the event and you should also get an email confirmation after you register that has your registration time. Hope that helps for next time! Thank you for your service!

I am the caregiver to my veteran son who proudly served our country. After 12 years of service he returned home. I did not understand his behavioral issues or even know what was happening. I reached out to my case worker who referred me to Soldiers Angels. My experience with them has no price. They are their 24/7 during my times of need.

This program has truly made our family extremely grateful and happy and blessed with the generosity of everyone involved. We are forever grateful for each and everyone who helps to make families like ours able to enjoy Christmas and provide food and gifts for our children! They are absolutely amazing!!

While I appreciate the person who helped us for the holidays, the agency Soldiers Angels is very unuser friendly and is extremely unwilling to help veterans when their systems malfunction, prime example their system allows people to sign up or attempt to sign up for events after they have met their quota fulfillment, I have experienced numerous times of being able to go to link fill it all out and then click submit only to be told event is full,but if they are full veteran should not be able to click link to sign up and they refuse to help when reached in reference to the issue, so if I could give zero stars I would be cause this is one of many problems this agency has had over past decade with this type of event and many others, they do not truly help but want the recognition without factual help and assistance. Again I appreciate the person who helped our family over holidays, but they are not the organization but a volunteer outside of main org, so them yes but org too many horrific experiences from them over past 9-10 yrs.

We believe you're referring to the food distribution registration for part of this review. Unfortunately, the demand for these events is very high. Our slots are typically filled within minutes at each site, which overwhelms our registration system. We are limited by funding to expand further but this proves the level of need for our services.

My first exposure with this organization was at the VA hospital in Audie Murphy while I was at a doctor's appointment with my father, after the doctor's visit, we noticed in the courtyard that there were lunches being given out by soldiers Angels, they were handing out lunch boxes and then later came in with Little Caesars Pizza, provided drinks and water with the lunches as well, I was really impressed when I noticed how organized they were in getting people in line to receive their lunches, the lunches were provided for the vets as well as some family members, The volunteers that were serving these lunches were extremely polite and you could tell that these volunteers truly enjoyed what they were doing, very polite and very compassionate towards the vets, and their families, because I was so impressed with the setup after observing for a while that I went up to one of the volunteers to inquire about becoming one of the volunteers, as I had been wanting to do something and get involved that helped with honoring our military. After receiving the information I immediately got involved and started participating in some of the opportunities to provide lunches at various locations in the city serving coffee and donuts at some of the clinics, handing out hygiene products and supplies for our vets, then into the holidays stuffing over several hundred Christmas stockings with all kinds of goodies to be sent over to our military people who were deployed, and handing some of those out to various organizations and hospitals that soldiers angels serve, I can definitely say that these vets are eternally grateful for the support and can't thank us enough for the things that we do. Soldiers Angels is a great organization that never lets our military forget how much we appreciate them and for what they have done for our country and the reason why we are able to do these types of things is because of our military keeping us free to do so, The team of volunteers are also very kind, toward each other, and work phenomenally as a team, as we know why we are there I couldn't brag more about an organization that does as much as they do for our vets, and active military, and their families, to make sure that they are never forgotten for their ultimate sacrifice, I highly highly recommend this organization if you're looking for a place to volunteer that honor our vets and our active military

Soldiers' Angels is a great supporter of our military veterans. I have participated for more than 5 years in the Denver VA hospital and the monthly food distribution. Whether it's supporting people who rely and are resident in the VA or supporting 200 cars that run through the food distribution every month, Soldiers' Angels is a great group to work with. The mission is one of compassion and honoring service. Soldiers' Angels leadership is very dedicated to their mission and is easy for people like me to both volunteer and communicate to their team. Their mission is close to my heart and the team of people I work with at Soldiers' Angels allows me to give my time to a passion of mine.

Hello, I'm so sorry to hear that you're having trouble getting registered for the food distribution events. It looks like you are in the Orlando area. Orlando is one of our three busiest food distribution sites with the largest demand for support. When the text message and email go out to register for the event, it goes to over 2,000 Veterans who are all in a situation of need. Typically, the registration and waitlist for Orlando fill up to capacity in less than 15 minutes. Unfortunately, our event is only able to accommodate 200. If you are having issues with registration, we do encourage you to reach out via email and we'll put you in touch with the local area manager. Please email info@soldiersangels.org and we'll make the connection.

I joined Soldier's Angels over a year ago and it has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. My first "adopted Solider" communicated with me and we formed a wonderful friendship. He was so grateful for all and any support. I was the only person that sent him packages the entire time he was deployed. It brought me so much happiness to know that I was helping such a kind young man that is serving our Country. Even though I have adopted several other Soliders since I became a member, I will never forgot him. This organization is so wonderful and I'm honored to be a part of it! If your are thinking of joining, then you definitely should. It's the most rewarding nonprofits that I've ever been apart of.

Soldiers' Angels came into my life at a time when I wanted to give back and pay it forward. It allows you to "work" from home, which makes it easier for me. Because there are so many different ways to give, you can give as little or as much time to the program as you want at any point of time in your journey within the organization. If you don't have time, money, and in kind donations are accepted and appreciated.

The feedback from the recipients of my efforts has often brought me to tears because it is always heartfelt and overwhelming.

They give so much for us, this is an amazing way to give back to our active and retired military members as well as caregivers and families of the military members.

Thank you Soldiers' Angels for allowing me to be a part of the program!!

Growing up around servicemembers, veterans, and their families, meant I was always home on any military base no matter where that had been. Even today, at 61, I still consider myself a Navy Brat and any military base my hometown. The opportunity to continue being a "good neighbor" to today's military community is one that Soldier's Angels provides to me on many different levels and I know from the cards, letters, and emails that I've received thanking me how much every card, every letter of gratitude, every care package, and any of the myriad other ways we support them, means to the recipients. There are many worthy organizations out there who seek to support our servicemembers and veterans, but Soldier's Angels is in a class of excellence all by itself.

Before I was an Angel, I was (and remain) a Navy brat. Even at 61! While we were nearly always able to go where Dad, CTR1 James M. Russell USN (ret.), went (the exception, of course, being to sea), it wasn't easy to overlook the fact that many of the sailors and Marines stationed alongside him weren't so lucky. And as this was around the end of the Vietnam War, it was an especially difficult time for servicemembers in general. Through my work as a volunteer with Soldiers' Angels, I feel as if in some way by reaching out to those who serve today I am reaching back to those from my youth. I believe to my core in our motto "May No Soldier Go Unloved," and that includes every single Sailor, Marine, Airman, Coastie, and now, Guardian as well. They're always there for me and, through Soldiers' Angels, I will always be there for them.

My wife was in the hospital with our 3rd child pregnant spent the whole time in the hospital with hyperemesis. I have never seen anyone so sick in my life. We lived far away from family and had no support and this was unplanned and soldier angels literally put us on a list and people helped us get everything we needed, complete strangers and then after the baby was born we got so many cards just congratulating us on our new addition the support was amazing. Top it all off they even helped me make christmas for my kids happen because CHAMPVA in the state of FL is horrible and no one will work with CHAMPVA so we had to pay for everything out of pocket and i was stressing for christmas that year but another Soldier Angel stepped in and said "I got you!" such generosity thank you Soldier Angels!!!!

After I had Covid, had a stoke and lost my job, everything changed. I never thought this would happen to me. I went from Living to exiting and was underwater in paying my bills and putting food on the table. I discovered Soldiers' and Angels while coming for an appointment at Lake Baldwin Medical Clinic I made some inquiries and researched the program on line...and found it to be Top of the Line. I truly believe it's a God Sent Program that reaches out to Every Veteran in need and extends it arms not only locally, but to those Veterans Serving Internationally as well. The food distribution program is well thought out and extremely organized. The food, vegetables, fruit and meat are fresh and appear to be well handled throughout the process. That speaks volumes and resonates a true Caring Spirit. The quantity provided really helps me and my family and reduces our stress level, knowing that we can't afford to buy these quality items on our own. Thank you so much Soldier's and Angels.

Soldiers’ Angels is an excellent organization dedicated to showing deployed soldiers they are admired and never forgotten. It sends packages and letters from its many dedicated volunteers to respond to needs of these soldiers overseas or far from home. Soldiers and their leaders write Soldiers’ Angels back thanking this organization for remembering them and expressing great appreciation for responding to requests or just sending letters of hope to let them know that they’re cared about and supported! Kudos to this fine group! Hoo-rah!!

This is my number one favorite charity.

I've supported Soldiers' Angels for two or three years. They do a world of good. I particularly like it that you can be as involved -- or uninvolved -- as you want to be. I've participated in adopting a soldier's family for Christmas, which involves talking to them about their individual wants and needs and then having the pleasure of supplying them. You can also adopt a deployed soldier. You can go the their Amazon page and choose the items you'd like to donate. Or you can just give a donation.

The operation is run in a professional manner. When I've needed to communicate, as with the Adopt-a-Family program, they've gotten back to me quickly and been very helpful.

Donate to them! Work with them! Follow them! You'll be glad you did.

I've had the pleasure of firsthand experience with Soldier's Angels in San Antonio. Military City USA! I was at Ft. Sam Houston the other day and saw love, caring and charity at work. There was a long line of cars lined up by the Post Office of military families needing food, co-sponsored by the SA Food Bank, another Angel! Volunteers were handing out bags of a variety of needed foods! Everyone was very appreciative, and these Volunteers loved doing this! Folks, please, let's help our fellow neighbors in need. There are so many ways Soldiers' Angel helps other than food. Please donate whatever you can to this great American organization and cause close to where you live. We have! God bless our Troops and God Bless America! LTC (Ret Army) & Mrs. Jerry Gonzales, RN, MHA

Today was the food distribution at the Jewell VA clinic here in Denver and as usual it was a wonderful and very much appreciated event
Us old soldiers look forward to seeing each other and receiving much needed groceries. We receive a lot of great things and for some of us we actually really need the help. A lot of us have SNAP BENEFITS ( food stamps) but after the COVID FUNDS were stopped in March there is no way we can eat through the month. ($195.00) Anyway we love seeing each other and the supplies are so very much appreciated.
Thanks again for your help and kindness

Before finding out about Soldiers Angels, we had very little food, and sometimes went without food for a day or two. Sometimes eating pancakes or cans of corn. This has made the biggest impact on our lives!! My wife is very ill and we have alot of medical bills, she is always at the doctors or in the hospital, she is not on my VA health plan. Just social security.
Everyone there is so kind, always smiling and saying hi. No one makes you feel like you are begging for food, the food drive is always very positive and organized.
God Bless every one that is involved in getting the food and all the volunteers.

The Soldiers' Angels nonprofit organization is heaven-sent for me and my family. Due to the pandemic, there was a loss of income in the family and with prices skyrocketing I can't afford the food products that I need. By having Soldiers' Angels I can save a little money to put toward my bills. And not stress about what my family and I will have to eat. By having Soldiers' Angels our minds are no longer stressed about what we are going to do to survive. I also enjoy seeing the positive spirits of the volunteers it makes me proud that I served and that some civilians really do care about us soldiers. God bless you Soldiers' Angels.

Being on disability and getting very little food stamps each month means that I don't have much money to pay bills, and rent and have enough money to take care of personal items, car insurance, and have money for gas and to last for the rest of the month just in case.

This food distribution helps with not having to buy the food that I would have to if it were not for them giving me this food. It helps me every month have food for the whole month and save what little money I can each month.

Soldiers Angels is such a worthwhile organization. It's easy to be a part of the letter writing team(especially as you can do from home during COVID times). It's not time consuming to do the simply act of writing a card/note and the least we could all do to say thank you for their service. It's an honor/privilege to be a part of such a worthwhile organization and show our active armed services personnel and veterans our gratitude.

Amy and her team of dedicated professionals have exceeded expectations time and time again. Recently, Gunn Automotive partnered with Soldiers' Angels for a city-wide book drive for our service members, VA hospitals, and Veterans' Homes.

We collected a whopping 25,000 books! Volunteers transported and boxed each book.

This was my 5th time doing this drive, and I know firsthand how much work is involved in shipping these books, and the Soldiers' Angels team packed each with a smile.

Gunn has done many events: hygiene drives, stocking stuffing, and Treats for Troops at all of our dealerships; we've also given them more than $60,000 in cash to fund programs.

Your money and time are well spent here, and our heroes deserve it.

Soldiers' Angels is the Real Deal. They are there for Active Duty Servicemembers, veterans, and families. The amount of goods that leave the HQ warehouse is phenomenal.

John sits in his lift-chair most days due to health issues and with not much to do except watch TV and play solitaire on his laptop. We try to get out once a day to keep him active. The Soldiers' Angels food distribution is a highlight of his month. The food is great and helps us be able to pay other expenses, but it's the volunteers he goes to see. He loves to interact with them as they put the food in our car. They are so friendly and kind and everyone thanks him for his service. He always leaves refreshed and with a smile on his face. Here is a photo of John at a recent Soldiers' Angels Holiday event making a funny face. We had such a good time. The volunteers at this event helped him get in and out of the building with his transport chair and the woman serving us was a veteran. He loves to hear of other veterans stories. The first time we were exposed to Soldiers' Angels was when John went on an Honor Flight to Washington, D.C. On the flight home the paramedics had to attend to him due to his heart problems so he didn't get to read his large envelope of cards provided by Soldiers' Angels volunteers on the ride home. The next day after church, it took us 2 hours to read each card out loud and I think we cried the whole time. We felt the love, prayers, well-wishes and heartfelt thanks from each Soldiers' Angels writer. We love Soldiers' Angels. Thank you so much for loving John.

I sent a veteran friend, single mom with 2 teen boys, to the site to register for food distribution. She received an email with her appointment time. She went to the place, waited in line, showed her id and was told to proceed to the next extremely long line. This was on her lunch break. After nearly an hour. She gets all the way to the front of the line where they check her id again and tell her she does NOT meet the income requirements??? She was also told she should of received an email or phone call to which she received neither, and pulled out her phone to double check. They asked her to get out of line and leave. Like really??? This could be a solid program IF they did didn’t jerk people around! No call was made, no email was sent. She took extra time from her lunch to wait in line to be flat out denied of food, which is atrocious imho. The way I see it is if people are not informed that they do not qualify, AFTER being led to believe that they do with an appointment time emailed to them, and they show up….how could people be turned away? That was not her discrepancy, it was on Soldier’s Angels. Today they were not Angelic. My friend was embarrassed and left, in addition to 2 cars in front of her and the car behind her. And before the argument of people showing up and not qualifying comes up, let me be clear…this was not the case. My friend was led to believe she was eligible, and she had a need. All that was overlooked in such an ugly fashion. Shame on you Soldiers Angels.

Hello, and sincere apologies that you have not been able to register for the Atlanta Food Distribution. Unfortunately, the need for food assistance in Atlanta is extremely high with the situation continuing to worsen. Our event can only provide food to 200 veterans. When we release registration to the list of veterans wanting food assistance, it is full within about six minutes. That includes 200 veterans on the registered list as well as 50 on the waitlist. We are doing the best we can to serve as many veterans in-need in your area, but unfortunately, the need is very, very great.

This organization is awesome and it's a top rated charity! To help make our soldiers know that they are appreciated and not forgotten is an honor, and they are so appreciative of our efforts. The organization was started by General Patton's grandniece, who had a son in the army. He told her he was one of the few who received care packages, so she and friends and relatives started sending them to all the soldiers in his platoon. Now there are thousands of "angels" all over the world showing we care about our soldiers. Please join us!

After my husband retired from the Navy, we really felt that we needed to help the Military community in some way, as while on active duty, we ourselves needed help making ends meet, thus, the need to give-back. (fyi: Enlisted families actually get paid far less than what civilians might & often think)
So, after researching many other charitable causes, the one thing that kept us coming back was: Soldiers Angels encourages and gladly accepts handmade items. Along with the several areas of ways to support the Military and Veteran communities, as there's literally "something for everyone" . It's truly been a blessing to use our God-given talents for others. They do have ways to give monetary donations, however that is never used as a pressure point on the Volunteers. For myself personally, it's been a fantastic way to make sewn items, handmade cards, etc. Oh!! And there's the Holiday Stocking opportunity, that is so FUN to participate in, not to mention a WONDERFUL way to get into the Christmas spirit!!
Bottom Line:
If anyone is genuinely interested in getting involved with a reputable charity, as a Volunteer for over 3 years, I highly recommend trying it out!!
I'm a Volunteer and participates from the comfort of my own home.

My 2 children and I are so very grateful for Soldier's Angels and what they do for veterans and their families. In particular, I am in the Healthcare for Homeless Veterans program. The individuals who contribute to Soldier's Angels have provided the means for my children to enjoy Christmas 2 years in a row! Just recently we had to relocate due to our apartment being unsafe to live in. It was very expensive but again the "angels" of Soldier's Angels provided several housewarming gifts/necessities that we GREATLY appreciated. It freed up funds to apply to my first month's bills!

If it is on your heart to help veterans and their families, I would HIGHLY recommend supporting Soldier's Angels and becoming an "angel" to military families like mine!

Awesome blessing, little bit of everything. A cookware set with REAL silverware, an entire bedding set for a full size bed, cleaning/bathroom supplies, and a few odds & ends to top it off. Sandy was super helpful when I spoke to her about receiving the boxes. All I had to do was submit my application & my VA caseworker helped out from there. Didn't cost me a dime :-) I had never heard of Soldiers' Angels before, so I'm very thankful for the gifts & supplies they gave me. And thanks again Sandy for a smooth delivery.

I am a homeless disabled Veteran who has been denied treatment due being separated from the military under dishonorable. It has been so hard to get help and I have struggled with mental illness since I was beaten and shot while serving in the Marine Corp. I was forced to sign away my rights for benefits and my cousin has been trying to help me but she has issues herself from the military. This food distribution is helping me survive. I am grateful that this food distribution does not see honorable, dishonorably, mental ill, physically handicapped but you all see men and women who served our country so all could be free and to provide any of us food that is in need is a blessing. I am so grateful and dont know what I would do without it at this point

I have been a member for about 12 years. I started out as an Angel supporting one soldier at a time on an individual basis. That was very rewarding. Later I joined The letter Writing Team and am still going strong on that team. I enjoy writing to one person at a time and sharing about myself and my life here in Massachusetts. I feel it is important to connect with our men and women serving our country in far away places. I want them to know I support their mission and thank them for their service and sacrifice. I value their role for this country. I appreciate all they are doing to keep us safe here in the U.S.. They truly make a difference and they should know that. May they be well and safe during their military journey.

I have been a member of Soldiers Angels for almost 12 years. Being an Angel at first was very informative for me. I had several long term soldiers who were extremely grateful for the support I provided and I in turn was grateful for them helping me to understand what their life and mission was like wherever they were deployed. I even received a beautiful Pashmina scarf from Afghanistan. I felt like a mother as I was so much older. I tried to be a positive role model as I had been a teacher for 46 years.
Later I joined the Letter Writing Team and I am still a member today. I find this is very rewarding to connect with our men and women who serve our country. I enjoy writing letters where I tell them a little about me and my life here in the Northeast and share my love of sports and other interests I have.
This is a wonderful organization to join and make a difference in the life of a soldier far from home. They need us and we need them to keep us safe. There are many different teams one can join. Do not hesitate. Connect with someone who is deserving of our respect and well-wishes. Make a difference on a soldier's life.

If you want to support the troops this organization has many ways to do it: from 'adopting' a deployed soldier and sending care packages and letters; to writing cards and letters as a one time activity; to baking; crafting; and sewing. You pick what you can do and you decide how much to do. There are many different sub-groups in which to participate. I have volunteered for over 15 years and love it.

As a child growing up in the military, I saw first hand how difficult it was on those who were far from their family and loved ones. In many instances, service members were not fortunate enough to have a good support system from their family and received very little, if anything, in terms of cards, letters, and care packages. Soldiers' Angels gives me the opportunity to be that support from "home." I like knowing that any letter or card that I send has the ability to make someone's day, to remind them that there are people out there who care and appreciate them. I like knowing that I am able to honor those who have served in both peaceful times and war. I like knowing that I can, and do, make a difference.

Soldiers' Angels offers dozens of different programs and services for active duty, Veterans, and their family members. So, how do they do it? First, Soldiers' Angels has identified Veterans needs all across the country. Second, generous and wonderful people with resources support and equip Soldiers' Angels to do what needs to be done. And third, the organization is brilliantly staffed, from the CEO to the staff and Volunteers. Thousands of Volunteers around the world work tirelessly because they believe in the mission, and the organization, and they love serving. The CEO is perfectly aligned with her role, and her skills and personality have created a culture of hard work and fun. Soldiers' Angels is full of people who are passionate about what they do, who love coming to work and being part of a team, and who get to serve the most wonderful, deserving people on the planet. So, is Soldiers' Angels right for you? Only you can decide. Soldiers' Angels certainly works for me.

I am a 70 year old vet. Started work just out of highschool and worked until 66. My career was cut short because of the death of my former husband. Raised our 2 now grown children and helped with 4 grands and have helped to keep them afloat. I stopped work in 2017 because of chronic health problems and have settled for less than it takes to live in Colorado due to reductions in my earnings and those I should have received from my former husband. I appreciate the help I receive through Soldiers Angels for food that I can no longer afford. I substitute what I receive through this program with food I purchase due to my health needs. The items from this program help me to the next month so I am not increasing my already over the limit credit cards. Thank you and the businesses that contribute to the program. I am sure other veterans would add their thanks and appreciation. In addition, a great thanks to all the volunteers that help with distribution and the special heart gifts given by those committed men and women that spend their time and energy ensuring that each veteran is made to feel extra special.

I've been out of the service for less than a year. Finally my sister and BIL took in me and my son. Not having a job, being a burden on my family has been stressful for me. Being now a family of 7, living on just my BIL's income has made things extremely tight and making ends meet s challenge. Solders angels had been a great blessing. It's a great contribution to our household. Once I'm on my feet I hope to repay them for what they've done for my family.

I didn't know what to expect as I started opening boxes. I was extremely glade to see how organized the boxes were made. Everything that was in packages were nice, durable kitchen sets, bathroom essential, and the even thought of a few little but important things that most people will likely forget to grab on their first trip to the store, like a plunger and bowl scrubber for the toilet. It really helps me too, because now I can focus more of my energy on other things, and when I get home i can clean dishes and have a place to let them dry, sweep the floor, and mop or I can just come home and enjoy a meal with my new pots and plates and sleep comfortably under my new sheets and blankets. I can go on about everything it does and how it helped, a blessing. Thank you Soldier's Angels!

I have been going to their events in the Denver area for about 15 months now. When I first started Soldier's Angels gave away tons of food for Veterans, and only a few things unusable due to being expired. Over the last 4 months about 1/3 of the goods are expired, and sometimes by 3 to 4 months passed expiration date. I know they are doing their best to help Veterans, but it does Veterans no good if they have to throw away 1/3 of what they receive from Soldier's Angels. Another issue the volunteers don't care how they pack the bags. We have had bread at the bottom of bag stuffed with other goods. We have had eggs packed sideways in a bag with miscellaneous other items, and several eggs were broken when we got home. I know they are trying to do the best they can helping Veterans, but what good does it do if your good are going to be smashed, and, or expired?

It is not part of our programming to pick and choose who gets what food. Every registered attendee receives exactly the same food items. If you were a part of the waitlist, it's possible that you may not have received every item that was provided to those on the main list, but otherwise, all of our food is distributed. Please contact us at programs@soldiersangels.org so we can get this resolved.

Preparing my stockings was so inspiring. My only regret I couldn’t make more. Our troops are amazingly brave, loyal and true patriots of our country. Having fun now collecting socks for the warm socks for warriors. Thank you again soldiersngels.org for the inclusion to help our troops. It is my honor.

Soldiers’ Angels is an amazing organization!!! My deployment wouldn’t have been the same without the support, encouragement, and love I felt from the supporters of Soldiers’ Angels. I can’t thank all of you enough for the cards, letters, packages, candy, makeup, etc., but most of all the support and care you show to complete strangers. I wish I could give back to you what you have to me. You all definitely helped me get through a tough time being away from home. Please don’t get discouraged if you don’t hear back from the service member you write or send a package to! They do appreciate it and welcome it! Sometimes it’s just hard to sit down long enough to write back. Keep doing what you’re doing! You all are amazing. Thank you so much for taking time to care about us!

I have been volunteering to send baked goods to those deployed for over 4 1/2 years. It is sending a taste of home to those so very far away from their own. And it helps to bring a smile to their faces after a long hectic day as who can't help but smile while eating a cookie?

Soldiers’ Angels provides donations to enrich the lives of Active duty service members, National Guard service members, and Veterans through various donations. The inkind donations vary from snacks to gifts to support baby showers for new parents. I recently experienced a donation of a private suite to watch a hockey game. I was impressed at the generosity of the donation and coordination from Soldiers’ Angels, however witnessing Veterans celebrate, laugh, and enjoy life was the biggest reward. The Veterans and guests were exchanging contact information and making plans to get together again as Veterans for future events. This is healing and enriching the lives of our Veteran Community. Soldiers’ Angels knows the power in bringing people together.

This is a fun charity. Each month you select a soldier to send a box a goodies and self-care items too. The Angel group leader sends an email reminder if you get busy and forget to record when you sent the box - that is super helpful. The great thing about it is - each month you take a little bit of time to make someone a gift box and mail it and by doing that you get a little joy that you have helped someone out. The Facebook group is very supportive and helpful. The group provides lots of advice on what to include and what not to include in the gift boxes. They also share photos of boxes they have made. It is also rewarding to get your kids to help out - mine are always pointing out things that may be a cool thing to include in future boxes. .

My husband and I just had a beautiful baby girl, Liliana is three weeks old and will be undergoing heart surgery soon to correct a narrow artery and a hole in-between her heart chambers. Liliana is the "link" that magically connects me and my boys to my husband and his son. My husband Jimmy was in a car accident in October and was injured. Between physical therapy, now unemployed, trying to help take care of me and the kids, this has put a huge financial strain on our family. Jimmy has also had to step in to be my temporary VA Caregiver as my primary is on leave for surgeries. So as you can imagine this Christmas was going to be difficult to handle. But Soldiers Angels stepped up and made it out Christmas one that we’ll never forget. Thank you! You are appreciated!

The Facebook pages are a way to connect with other Soldier's Angels and help share ideas and have engaging discussions. I love that Soldier's Angels makes sure that each assigned veteran, active duty, or family member is not forgotten and that support is on its way. This is the best organization that I have ever had the pleasure to volunteer with.

I love volunteering as a Team Angel with Soldiers' Angels. I have no military background so I am grateful to have the opportunity to connect and support those who do. It's been special to read the stories of our incredible WWII vets who are now in their upper 90's and 100's; I had no idea that an individual accomplished and sacrificed so much. And, when I write to deployed service members, I stop and think about where they are and their commitment to support the presence of our Nation globally. Until I became a volunteer, I hadn't thought much about any of this. At a time COVID restrictions were imposed, I found this organization and jumped on the chance to do something meaningful from the confines of my home. I've served on three teams and each provides me with the chance to focus on deserving patriots. Going beyond oneself to help others is always uplifting and I will continue to volunteer with SA regardless of COVID trends. It's especially nice to know that through Soldier's Angels, what I have to give is so appreciated by the recipients and the organization. I'm proud to be part of this caring group of people who hail from every state. I'm particularly proud to mention those Angels who live in other countries and volunteer because they appreciate the work of our service members enough to be part of this organization.

I've been a Soldiers' Angels volunteer for seven months and I'm in awe with the scope of services provided to service members, their families, and veterans. I had no idea of the number of unmet needs of our service members, especially those deployed. The fact that Soldiers' Angels can help fill those gaps is tremendous. This is a large organization yet it infuses a personal touch and human connections in all its work and everywhere it functions. Even from afar, I feel in touch with those to whom I write or send gifts. It's also heartening to be aware of volunteers across the country who share this call to support our service members and veterans. I read a comment from one new volunteer from Belgium who said she joined because her country has nothing like this organization and she values what the American soldiers did in WW II and continue to do globally today. What a tribute to our men and women and this organization.

I heard about Soldiers' Angels while in the HUD-VASH Program. When I found my apartment, I needed additional household items, so my case manager gave me several phone numbers and names of nonprofits that could help me. Soldiers' Angels was on that list. I dialed down the list leaving messages and Soldiers' Angels was one of them. I called and left a message with Scott, who returned my call promptly. He was very friendly as he briefly interviewed me, then told me what I'd be getting, who would deliver it, and when it would arrive. I even got the delivery tracking number so I could keep tabs on my shipment's location, delivery time and date.

My delivery arrived on time with no hitches and it was everything I was told I'd be getting. I was most impressed by the bedding I received. A red comforter with matching sheets and pillowcases, plus two additional sets of linen made me smile as I put a set on my brand new queen size bed that I was able to find on my own.

I called several nonprofits for help in getting similar items, but Soldiers' Angels was the only one to come through with the goods they promised. I found Scott to be very professional in handling my request. Thank you Soldier's Angels
for being a little help from a friend!

About a month ago I received an email from Soldier’s Angels. This organization was interested in mailing greeting cards to veterans on their birthdays as well as get well cards if appropriate. I responded immediately for my husband, a 92 year old retired Sgt. Major of the United States Marine Corps. Chuck received his COVID shot in March. Within weeks he was hospitalized with an unexplained mass on his throat which prevented him from swallowing even liquids. He was hospitalized and placed on a high dosage of antibiotics for two weeks. He then developed C-diff as a result of the antibiotics and was hospitalized again. He had to go to rehab then as he had been bed ridden for so long his legs became weak. He came home again for a few days and then had a pain in his left side so severe he couldn’t breathe. At the hospital he was diagnosed with a pulmonary embolism and swollen kidney. He is now home but requires 24/7 oxygen, a catheter and a walker, all of which he never had before. Needless to say, his morale has been low. To date, my husband has received 20 cards full of warm thoughts, wishes and kind words. They mean so much to him and he keeps them close by to reread everyday. Thank you to such a wonderful organization that cares not only for active military and their families, but for our veterans who sometime feel forgotten.

Good day.

This was my first time attending the Soldiers' Angels veteran Food distribution event so I am not giving it a 5 star rating, unless I have something to compare it with.

However, from the point of being signed up on-line in advance, until driving away with the needed food, I was very impressed with the thoroughness of everything.

It was helpful to get the advance notice of what to do and how important it was to follow the guidelines.

After arriving, all the personnel, from the Veteran's Department Security force to the Soldier's Angels check-in staff were friendly and considerate, despite having to stand in the high 80's degree heat and direct cars through the line of cars.

The very large group of Soldiers' Angels staff personnel (themselves in the high heat) , who loaded the food into the vehicle were careful in how they did it. They all were friendly and I felt every one of them cared about me and every individual who came through.

They are the spirit we all should attain to, in helping one another.

My Soldier Angel is simply the best person I have never met. She sent care packages, wrote letters, and did the usual things that support groups for soldiers do. The thing is that she also texted me late into the night when I came down with COVID and got put into isolation. When no one was there to talk to me, she cared enough to talk. She wanted to know how I was feeling and really cared for me. Sure my team checked in and I had my health screenings but my Soldier Angel kept me alive on the inside by being the one person who always reached out, always cared, and constantly kept my spirits up. I can't say enough good things about Soldier's Angels and the support they brought to me.

I started a project for the Soldiers Angles called Precious Letters for for the Military service men and women. I adopted 7 soldiers and send packages as well as letters . I send separate packages to another adopted service for the same organization. They inspired me to step up and help those who is help me and my family live a happy fulfilled life. So I’m asking everyone to do the same. This is letters and paintings that is sent to our soldiers.

I have volunteered for Soldiers Angels almost since it started back in 2004 and I have loved every minute of it. Truly Soldiers Angels cares about our Military personnel including our Veterans....I say this as a Military Mom and as a Proud American.
God bless the leadership and all volunteers of Soldiers Angels....THANK YOU for giving me the opportunity to support our great Military!!! :)

Sincerely,
Elaine Hodges

I got the form to sign up for Soldiers’ Angel food program in the email one hour before filling it out and finding out that I was on a waiting list! Tell me what is fair about that?

We are so sorry to hear that you had a tough time registering for a Veteran Food Distribution event! Unfortunately, what you experienced is a sign of the times we are living in. The incredible demand for food assistance has created a very intense registration process for some of the markets we serve. At each event, we are able to provide food assistance to only 200 veterans and the registration process is first-come, first-served. Our contact lists for each city are between 1000 - 2500 veterans. When the text and email go out announcing registration, the lists fill almost immediately in our larger markets! In total, we register 280 submissions between a registered list and wait list. In Atlanta, our largest market for the event, we fill 280 slots in 8 minutes. Best advice: As soon as you get the text, call or click to fill out the form!

These amazing people are nothing less than perfect. They sent us baked goods, snacks, personal hygiene supplies, and small toys and such. It made my deployment enjoyable knowing that back home we have support. From the bottom of my heart, thank you. I will forever be thankful for what y'all do. Though you may not hear from soldiers all-too often, just know that every single one is thankful.

God bless.

They provide very much appreciated food to low income veterans. It is VERY organized getting through the number of veterans they serve. My only “complaint” is that they provide SO MUCH food, especially produce for one person at a time that they could serve more veterans with it.

What I got was an extraordinary amount of care, best practices of a well oiled machine, and a dignified care package welcoming me to my new home. They thought of everything...down to the toothbrush holder and mop. I'm forever grateful for this wonderful organization that obviously knows what their mission is...and how to fulfill it.

The people that run the Soldier's Angels food distribution, are some of the kindest, most respectful people I have ever had the pleasure to meet. I have never had to take charity before this past year, as a matter of fact, I have be on the giving side many times. I went with my head lowered in shame to my first distribution. Once there I was treated with such respect, that I was put at ease. The food we have received has been varied and of good quality, and so very much appreciated.

Every time I'm amazed at the generosity of all who donate the food, their time, and commitment to put a smile on all faces that attend. The Denver Soldiers Angels Branch is AWESOME!!! We got to meet Jacquelyn Smith from your San Antonio office on March 5th, 2021 at the Denver location, and she was such an Awesome Lady to chat with. Thanks for all you do Jackie. Also want to give a shout out to GINA who volunteers in Denver she is such an Incredible lady, and does an outstanding job. Also Dan who takes the time to make Masks for everyone who comes every month. Thank you Gina, and Dan, and all the volunteers in Denver who make this such an enjoyable event to attend.

We hear too often that our veterans, especially the older generation never felt any type of appreciation or gratitude for all that they sacrificed for our country. Please be sure to pass on a "Thank you for your service" to your father from all of us at Soldiers' Angels. And--- since you mentioned his birthday is coming up--- we would love to share even more gratitude for him on his upcoming birthday. Our Cards Plus Team of virtual volunteers is standing by to write cards to veterans to help them celebrate birthdays and other special occasions. I can only imagine how wonderful of a surprise it might be for your father to receive lots of birthday cards from people around the country.

I have been an Angel with Soldiers' Angels for three years. The organization is professional and compassionate and completely fabulous. I first started on the Letter Writing Team. Now I am on four teams including Special Forces, Baby Brigade and Adopt-A-Family (during the holiday season). I love being able to support our troops and veterans and being able to make it personal (i.e. I am writing a letter to a specific person or I am adopting a specific family). Something I didn't expect and enjoy immensely is the comraderie with other Angels primarily through closed Facebook groups (one for each team). We are a wonderful network. If any Angel has a question or situation or wants to share something (good or bad), all of us are there to support, suggest and celebrate. I am very proud to be an Angel with Soldiers' Angels. I wouldn't have it any other way!

This was our first (and hopefully only) time ever being faced with the need to utilize a program like this. We are normally on the other end of it. So it is safe to say, our pride was a little tattered when we finally decided to apply. This program was truly a godsend. From the ease of the application to being matched up (or technically chosen by) and angel, it was an incredible experience. Our angel went above and beyond to make this Christmas an amazing one for our boys. She listened and understood and never once judged our situation. She is truly an angel on Earth and I hope to continue to stay in touch with her going forward. Erin was exactly the 'Santa' my family needed to end the terrible year of 2020.

Hi I was very disappointed with this non profit my grand kids were treated so unfair they did not have any thing remotely close to what a family that was adopted was suppose to receive the 2 girls got a pair of pajamas each the boys got a hoodie each the 2 year old got a t shirt and pair of jeans they all got a pair of shoes 1 girl got a pair of leggings and they got 1 board game for all to share there was no warm clothes no gift card for Christmas dinner it was a mess my kids were devastated they cried and cried I read what a family was suppose to get and we got no where anything like we were suppose to get this is the worst non profit I have ever saw we have been adopted by embracing military families and the kids recieved so much and we were adopted by Santa's boots and they were so happy and we also got several gift cards and 1 just for Christmas dinner I give 5 stars to both of the other non orofitts but 0 stars to shoulders angels please my kids still need warm clothes and toys

We are so very sorry to hear that you and your grandkids had a bad experience with the Adopt-A-Family program. However, as you may remember, when you registered your family for support from our program, you were asked to fill out some details about your family, including some of their wishlist items. The “Angels” that will voluntarily “adopt” your family and provide you with gifts that can often go into the hundreds of dollars depending on the size of your family, use that information to guide their purchases. While we definitely do not want any children to feel disappointed, we also can see that the volunteer who supported your family did read your wishlist and provided gifts based on those details. Based on what you wrote, they focused on clothing because that seemed to be your most urgent need for your grandchildren. We hope that you have continued success with the other charities you mentioned. Thank you for your service.

I was so distraught and panicked about Christmas so much had happened in September of 2019 to my children and I. That I did not have much hope for Christmas even being special for my children. Just when I thought hope was over I got a call from a business call Pull A Part they told me they sponsored my family through Soldier's Angel's and I should come and pick up the gifts. My children was blessed with clothing and toys . I was especially grateful for the clothing because they definitely needed new winter clothes. I just want to say Thank you to Soldier's Angel's, Pull A Part on Henrico road, and all the other people that sponsor families through this program you all are truly a blessing.

2020 was such a tough, hard year for so many. My work team and I felt blessed that we were able to remain employed throughout the pandemic. Each year around the holidays we typically do some giving project, but wanted to do more this year. We found Soldiers' Angels on the internet, did some research, and eventually adopted a large family (9 members) the immediately got to work. Each day we were overwhelmed with the generosity and to complete the wish list and add to it made our hearts swell. In the end we received a beautiful picture and note from the family expressing their gratitude. It was a wonderful experience and plan to keep this as an annual event. I have also signed up for a few other projects such as the cards for service members.

I have been a volunteer for Soldier's Angels since 2010. Soldiers Angels is a lifeline to our service members overseas and at home. No one is forgotten, overseas service members, veterans, disabled veterans, widows, children, and families. There are so many different opportunities/groups where you can volunteer. From writing a letter or birthday card, sending monthly packages, baking, adopting a soldier for their deployment, helping chaplains, or a family at Christmas, and many other opportunities. I since 2010 I have been sending packages monthly, sometimes only 1 in a month other times over 8 packages in a month. Snacks, toiletries, holiday decorations, thanksgiving meals (just put it in the microwave), baked goods, breakfast in a bag, and coffee, coffee, coffee, just to mention a few! It is amazing how just to know that someone at home is thinking about them can make their day. I am honored and blessed to be a small part of such a wonderful organization.

I've been with Soldiers Angels for quite awhile and I grow more and more disconcerted by what I see leadership do.

The toxicity levels of the Angel Bakers is atrocious. Of the many groups I've worked with to send baked goods to deployed service members, this is the first group I've come across that doesn't actually care about the safety of the service member. Most don't even know what "Desert Safe" means when it comes to ingredients and recipes. They care more about using non-shelf stable baking ingredients then they do the safety of our service members. Angel Bakers doesn't require people to follow rules that would ensure baked items don't grow mold and other dangerous bacteria. When anyone brings this up, they're attacked on the Facebook group. We've even had service members repeatedly ask that Angel Bakers use shelf-stable ingredients and they go ignored or comments are that the service member is an "idiot who doesn't know anything." Leadership of this group does not hold people accountable and does not promote a safe environment for service members. Leadership of this group is one of the toxic members that berates people for trying to protect the service members. I'm not impressed with this specific group of the Soldiers Angels Organization and I think it needs a complete overhaul or removal. It is inevitable that something will go wrong and the person who will be caught in the crosshairs are the very people we're supposed to protect...our service members.

On another note, I would like to see Soldiers Angels do better on outreach. I see very little Marines and no Coast Guard on our sign up lists and that tells me not enough people are reaching out to tell them about this program. Anytime I try to do so myself, they've never even heard of Soldiers Angels. Outreach should be more important.

There is also a lax of accountability when it comes to requests. We're supposed to be supporting deployed service members and veterans. Not Angel's kids and grandkids. It seems more like anyone can put in a request for anything and it will get approved.

I stay because while the program isn't impressive and has so many glaring holes, it is a way for me to support service members, which is and has always been my goal.

I found Soldiers' Angels when I needed a purpose in my own life. Soldiers' Angels doesn't just support our military. It's a family that supports each other as well. And together, we are amazing. The relationships I have made both within the volunteers and the Service Members I have been fortunate enough to communicate with (this is a treasure since our Service Members don't often have the ability or time to communicate) have given me phenomenal purpose and feeling of usefulness. I whole heartedly recommend this organization.

I became an Angel after my boy came home from his deployment in 2020. During his deployment I had sent him numerous packages, letters and emails. In fact I sent so much that I was " dad scolded " at on point! But when he came home and told me some stories and how when he got a package or another soldier in his unit got one, how it made them feel. How much it was appreciated. How much it felt like Christmas morning. I am a tough, Italian 61 year old man who was brought to tears as I listened to my boy and looked him right in his large brown eyes with pride and respect. I knew at that point I needed to continue to bring some smiles and love to the ones that are giving me the freedom, safety and protection that affords us to live in this great nation. It is a small price to pay for what they are doing for us.

I've really appreciated being able to support our troops and their heroes in a way that fits my schedule best. The flexibility of the various teams is awesome.

I have been a volunteer for 10 years. I write letters and send packages to a soldier through their deployment. I am also part of the ladies of liberty team. I joined 10 years ago because I believe they do wonderful work and I am proud to be part of it.

Soldiers’ Angels is an awesome organization! I started off as the VA representative for two central Arkansas VA hospitals. I’m now on the letter writing team and the special ops forces team. Not only do I get great support from my team leaders, the support goes all the way to the top with Amy Palmer! The letters and emails I have received from deployed troops is very heartwarming. They appreciate everything we do. And I visited with over 8000 veterans at the VA hospitals and I can tell you, that is the most rewarding thing I have ever done. If it was not for some unfortunate circumstances, I would still be doing that today! One thing I learned working with this organization is that they care about every angel, every veteran and all
Our military. They are so many ways to volunteer and I promise you, it makes a difference! Until the day I die, or as long as I physically can, I will be a Soldiers Angels volunteer!

I am a 50 year old physically disabled person who loves her country deeply. After 9/11 my need to help other Americans seemed more important, so I started to research. I looked into it and it seemed that I checked every military 501c organization there was, and I chose Soldiers Angels. I'm so ecstatic that I did! First of all I work with soldiers directly on the front lines in active war zones over seas, so I know I'm making a difference. We sometimes forget these soldiers are in a far away place sometimes receiving no letters or care packages from a friend or family which can make it seem very lonely when they are already under so much stress. Just hearing their name at roll call can make a bad day so good for them. Sometimes the Service Members are in areas where a simple cookie sent from us can seem like the best thing in the world and put a smile on their face that is hard to forget. Nothing is better than getting correspondence back from a far away land too. I see my packages in their hands so I know my contributions are making a difference, because I send it directly to them. I have incredible support from my team leaders with every question that I may have, and if they don't have the answer they will go all the way to the CEO to get an answer for me with no problem. Most of all I have never seen a group of people more dedicated to helping other people with such love, encouragement, dedication, and determination to get things to them no matter where our soldiers are fighting for our freedom every day. We are Soldiers Angels and we are awesome incredible angels. I will always be an angel.....
