Its All About the Troops

We here at Packages From Home would like to thank The Dennis Prager Show for all their help and professionalism. The live remote broadcast went off without a hitch and was a great success. Many people who've never heard of Packages From Home now know who we are and what we do. Its always nice to have the luxury of sitting back and appreciating the results of your hard work, however we have lots of work ahead. We're "All About The Troops". There are several upcoming events that will be fun, exciting and most of all will benefit our brave service men and women who serve overseas. Keep your eyes peeled for our upcoming Paint Ball event.

A Word About Postage

Please keep in mind that both product and postage are contributed by the generosity of the community. Make a donation today to send a package to one of our brave service men and woman. We do not receive any donations from the post office or the military.

Native American Outreach

Native Americans have a long history of distinguished and loyal Service to our Country. Family members are typically very supportive but unfortunately, some families live in remote areas that make it difficult or impossible for them to send frequent letters and support packages to their loved one who is serving in Harm's way in the War Against Terrorism... and many do not even know that Packages From Home exists to help them support their deployed family member! Packages From Home therefore conducts a Native American Outreach at powwows and gatherings.

Are you Native American or do you know a Native American family who has a deployed family member? Many families who live on remote reservations or who do not have Internet access are unaware that their soldiers can receive free care and comfort packages from Packages From Home while they are deployed. The goal of this Outreach is to let Native American family members know about this important resource that can supplement their own support of their loved one. At each powwow we attend, sign up forms are available so family members can request Packages From Home send care and comfort packages to their relative who is fighting in the War Against Terrorism - there is no charge to the soldier or his/her family.

If you have questions or if you would like to help out (volunteer) at a powwow (giving out information and sign up forms) please contact Laureen Chischilly-Keyonnie, our Native American Outreach coordinator. Laureen is of the Diné (People), and can be reached at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it . Laureen's son Marcus is a proud Marine currently serving our country and returned home from Iraq in March 2008, (Welcome HOME Devil Dog!) and Laureen's vision is that every Native American serving our great Country receives every bit of support possible: from his family, his friends, and PACKAGES FROM HOME.

A Very Special Thank You

Packages From Home would like to Thank All the volunteers and businesses who helped us during our move and getting us prepared for the Dennis Prager Live broadcast.

The following businesses put in a lot of time and hard work in making sure our packing facility and new administration building were freshly painted, scrubbed down and the carpets cleaned. We truly appreciate all the great work that was accomplished and recommend anyone who needs these services done, especially to businesses who support our mission here at Packages From Home.
