Team ~
We are a group (a company) of truly special and giving people. When called upon, our hearts are HUGE and the way we band together to support our community and Military men and women is truly inspiring.
Below is an image of the items you so graciously donated during our Military Appreciation drive in May. Together we donated 5 boxes of assorted food, hygiene items, leisure games, gators, etc. Thank you all for your support and your kindness!
Please enjoy this note from a deployed care package recipient as well as a note from the Executive Director of Operation Gratitude, thanking us for our support.
Email from a care package recipient deployed overseas:
Thank you! I wanted to personally reach out and say how much we appreciate the support you have shown. I am currently on deployment and received one of the care packages; it has truly brought some extra joy into my life being so far from home. Please keep up the good work as I know there are many more of my brothers and sisters in the service that will be just as grateful as me. Again, thank you very much! Very Respectfully, AZ3 F, S.M. VAQ-132 “Scorpions”
Dear Crawford Mechanical Services,
Thank you for your generous donation of 5 boxes of Assorted Food & OTC non-prescription/Hygiene Items, toilet paper, Leisure games, Gators, and supporting those who serve. Since our founding in 2003, with the help of grateful Americans like you, we have delivered over 4 million of our signature Care Packages to Deployed Troops, Veterans, Military Families, Recruit Graduates and First Responders. We are honored to serve those who have served us and are grateful for your support.
Your support has a tremendous impact. A Care Package boosts morale for a Service Member stationed far from home and enables a Veteran, Wounded Hero or Caregiver to feel appreciated — many for the first time. Our Battalion Buddies bring comfort to the children of Deployed Troops at a very stressful time in their young lives. When we hand deliver Care Pouches to new Officer and Recruit Graduates, they know that as they begin their career of service to our great nation, they are supported along the way. And the delivery of First Responder Care Packages shows local heroes that their community values them in an often thankless job.
Thank you again for your thoughtfulness and wonderful patriotic spirit. Every single donation we receive furthers our mission, and the recipients of your generosity will remember your kindness forever. As a daughter of a retired Army Colonel, wife of a former Navy Petty Officer and sister of a former Deputy Sheriff, I will always be appreciative of your support and encouragement for Operation Gratitude. You are truly making a difference!
With Gratitude,
Meg Barron
Executive Director
