Hello Everyone,
I first want to thank you for your willingness to participate in The Comfort Queen (TCQ) Support Our Troops. We provide care packages for soldiers with items that I found have been requested consistently by our troops.
Our goal is to help our soldiers when in need while they are overseas. But our helping hand doesn’t stop there! This also helps make their return to the states easier, with an adjustment period that won’t be as difficult or financially draining, since the extra cost of moving away is not covered by the U.S. Government. Although the soldiers do receive extra pay for serving overseas, it is still not enough to cover their expenses - especially since compensation is dependent on their rank. This time away sometimes prevents spouses from keeping their employment. Additionally, a lot of soldiers lose their homes while they are away and have no way to prevent it from happening.
Aside from care packages for the troops, TCQ also does many events to raise money to benefit our military families. We must not forget that they too sacrifice and serve. TCQ provides these families with school supplies and food. At times we also help with bill payments, clothing and childcare.
Below is a list of items that I have found are regularly requested by troops while away. Please remember that whatever you donate has to uphold all temperatures. These are just suggestions and all donations are appreciated:
Shampoo Bobby Pins Body Cream
Conditioner Wash Cloths Hair Ties
Soap Magazines Books
Shaving Cream Batteries (AA) Brownies
Razors Candy Cookies
Dental Floss Chips Playing Cards
Sun Screen Dominoes Microwave Food
Lip Balm Cereal Fruit/Cereal Bars
Tooth Brush Dry Boxed Food Canned Food
Pens Stationary Calling Cards
Tees Socks Bed Sheets (twin size)
Towels DVD’s Basketballs
Footballs Sports Equipment (for M.M.A, boxing, baseball) iTunes Gift Cards
Please do not get anything white (tees, sheets, towels etc…) since they will get dirty quickly in the conditions of their environment. Also please do not send any chocolates or items that will melt. If you plan on sending any canned foods, please provide us with the can opener if needed.
I have an XBOX system (not the xbox360) that I plan on sending. If you have any games you would like donate that can be used with this system, please send an email so we do not send that package out yet.
Please send all items to: The Comfort Queen
468 Penn Estates
East Stroudsburg, Pa. 18301
If you have any questions please feel free to contact us by email at:
Info@thecomfortqueen.com
If you feel you want to help but cannot send any items and would like to make a monetary donation, we take donations through paypal.com at info@thecomfortqueen.com
Another way of helping is by placing a food order through www.TheComfortQueen.com where 30% of your total purchase will be put towards supporting our troop’s families.
Again I want to thank you for joining together with TCQ in supporting our troops. It does not take much to help, but it will be well appreciated by one of our soldiers.
Sincerely,
Michelle Moy
