Review for H.E.R.O.E.S. Care, Inc., Fenton, MO, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

H.E.R.O.E.S. Care, Inc never disappoints us. At SLU we've partnered with them to send and pack hundreds of packages for soldiers. Each time, they help us with what we didn't collect, provide the packing facility, and make arrangements to ship. I met a soldier on the plane and we were talking about H.E.R.O.E.S. Care, he said he got a care package while deployed and it meant so much. He said it was a wonderful feeling. H.E.R.O.E.S. Care is all about the soldiers and veterans as well as their family. Both Jon and Dave serve those who serve our country. Can't ask for a better organization and if you have time, donate time; if you have money; donate money to help.

Review for H.E.R.O.E.S. Care, Inc., Fenton, MO, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

At least once a year, a group of staff, family and friends from my place of employment gather at H.E.R.O.E.S. Care to put together care packages for troops who are deployed. It is a friendly competition between us to see how much we can put in the box and still close it. Last year, we set out to collect enough donations for 101 care packages to send to a unit deployed through Christmas. H.E.R.O.E.S. Care allowed us to use their space and when we ran out of donations, they gave us items to continue packing boxes. We finished with 103 boxes, but H.E.R.O.E.S. Care wasn’t finished. They ensured the boxes were addressed and shipped. We paid for the postage, they did all the coordinating and delivering to the local post office. Dave, Jon and the rest of the H.E.R.O.E.S. Care folks are wonderful people. They started years ago with a little girl’s dream and today, are positively impacting the lives of our military around the globe, their families and veterans. I’m a veteran and my life has been impacted just by volunteering. This is an organization focused on serving our military and their family; at times the support provided is life changing.
