Care Package Sign-Up Form

This form must be completed in its entirety & submitted if you wish
to receive care packages from our organization.        

Most Needed Items: Do you miss certain items from home or need a hard-to-find item? Please let us know. Ask the other members in your unit what they miss from home so we may also include those items. Please read our requirements, below before completing this section.

      Do you have K-9 units with special needs for canine items? Let us know! We love spoiling our MWDs!
      Do you have FEMALE troops in your unit? Please let us know approximately how many so we can send them feminine products.
      Need Batteries? Please let us know the size(s) and quantity needed.
      Need School Supplies or Toys for the local children?
      Need Medical Supplies? We can assist with smaller medical items and some medical text books.

Requesting Electronics or Expensive Items?   Please read ...
We abide by all Government laws. As per U.S.CODE TITLE 7353 (5 U.S.C. § 7353; Standards of Ethical Conduct - Gifts from Outside Sources), we CANNOT send items valued over $20.00 including digital cameras, microwaves, laptops, game systems or other expensive items to an individual troop. Items valued at more than $20.00 must be SHARED.

G2TT reserves the right to use discretion as to which units qualify for such items. Since we're funded entirely by private donations, these items are sent only to units in very remote, combat outpost areas with little or no access to a PX, MWR, or entertainment. If your unit qualifies & requires a microwave, game system, television set, or DVD player, we need your Commanding Officer's written agreement via e-mail stating these gifts will be shared by all unit personnel, that the items will become inventory of your unit and listed in your unit's property books and that these items will not be kept by an individual Soldier, Sailor, Marine, Coastie or Airman.  Note: Our funds are low, so we cannot buy these items for every unit that needs them, but we'll do our best.

We cannot send you contraband items such as tobacco or plants. Nor can we send tactical gear, uniforms, boots, military manuals, satellite phones, iPods, or PSPs.

We do not have funds or ability to ship power converters or large recreational items such as billiards tables, ping pong tables or large exercise mats or other large items such as freezers and air conditioner units. 

Please ask the others in your unit and your Commanding Officer first. Then, in the box below, tell us what your unit REALLY NEEDS (not just you).

Please confirm that YOU will be our Point of Contact for your entire unit and that you're in a COMBAT ZONE. If you do not check "yes", you will be disqualified. Yes No

Note: G2TT takes pride in the way we manage our donations, our secure troop data and our care packages. All sign-ups are hand-checked by a person with a military background and combat deployment knowledge. Sign-ups that are duplicates will be deleted. Submissions not abiding by our policies or those which contain falsified information will also be deleted. We will only accept one Point of Contact per unit or platoon. Please do NOT sign up your friends or relatives without our consent. If we have not given you prior consent, the submission will be disqualified. Thank you for understanding.

Our Promise To You:
Give2TheTroops® abides by OPSEC and Department of Defense regulations and will NOT share your address or personal information with anyone except our Directors coordinating your care packages. We will keep your e-mail address confidential and it will only be used if we have a question regarding your sign-up. For your safety, we inspect every item in each care package sent to ensure the items are not prohibited, inappropriate or tampered with. We also inspect all letters and cards to ensure they are uplifting and positive. We'll post your letters and photos with your permission, but reserve the right to omit or modify any personal or sensitive information that may cause grief or anxiety to your family back home or which violates OPSEC guidelines. We'll do our best to include the items you request and send your first box within 6 -8 weeks after your sign-up. If you need anything from us at any time, we'll be here for you - just send us an email. Thank you again for your service to our country and May God Bless all of you.

Important! We need this agreement to support you.
I hereby give my permission to Give2TheTroops to release my APO/FPO address to its Directors for purposes of sending me and my unit care packages or letters. I also give my permission to Give2TheTroops to use my deployment photos and thank you notes I send them on their web site or in their fliers for purposes of showing visitors the importance of supporting the troops and encouraging others to support its mission.

I agree
