Effective 15 February, 2012, we will include troops NOT assigned to war zones.
ALL else remains the same on this web site. Troops assigned to locations within the United State will not be accepted however (at least at this time).
So, for example, if a Soldier, Sailor, Airman or Marine wishes to be a contact and is stationed in Germany, Korea, Greenland, etc., they may do so as long as they agree to the terms and conditions of being a 'contact'.
We will discontinue annotating what areas are declared as war zones because it has become impossible to keep up with the changes. Because of this, we strongly suggest you use the search tool to find the troops you wish to support.
WARNING: Contents of this site are addictive.
Persons using this site may be overcome with tears of sympathy or tears of joy. May also cause a sense of pride in our great nation and the fighting men and women who defend our freedom.
We are doing good things
with your support. Donations are tax-deductible!
(Donations to the troops are NOT the same as donations to Any Soldier Inc.)

Atlanta-area Parents!
From the makers of "Undercover Boss" comes a new series, the "It Takes a Village Project" for The Oprah Winfrey Network-- and we're coming to Atlanta! We are looking for Military families who are facing challenging times with their teenagers.
Many parents suddenly have new problems at home once their kids hit 13… they're new people! And military service presents additional challenges to both them and their wonderful families back home. And we are here to bring help!
"Village" is a positive-change show aimed at helping a family by bringing together neighbors to help one another, and strengthening community. The show will offer common sense solutions for common family problems. Our team has worked on "Super Nanny" and "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition," and "Village" shares its themes. BUT, the help is in-kind services and support from the neighborhood, fixing and building relationships. Each hour-long episode will feature a family confronting challenges with their teens ... but the show will rally the community to help the family. The help will come from friends, family, neighbors and free services. Do you not know your neighbors? Do you wish you did? "Village" creates a greater sense of community for the whole neighborhood.
Requirements
A family:
a) living in a home, townhouse or duplex
b) with at least one teen in the family
c) other than the teen, there should be at least one more child currently living in the home
Send an email with photos and a brief description of your family's situation ASAP to: mitch.mccabe@studiolambert.com

Folks who have been with us awhile know who Major Pain is (AKA Major Gary Bourland) who was the FIRST Marine to join AnySoldier.com (but was very clear that I was not to put 'Any Soldier' under his name in his address, which is absolutely understandable and the genesis of my going after the domain of AnyMarine.com).
Gary is also a Board of Director's member of Any Soldier Inc. If you are interested, you may be some of the very first to get a very special AnySoldier.com bracelet that HE makes. We have submitted this particular design to our Trademark Attorney. Gary also offers a number of other bracelets, ALL very cool and worthwhile. For the AnySoldier one, check HERE, for all the rest of the bracelets (and you really should check them out), they are HERE. SURE to be collector's items!!

Any Soldier Inc. #11993
Combined Federal Campaign (CFC)
Anyone in the Federal Government and Military can contribute to Any Soldier Inc. Our catalog number: 11993.
Please help spread the word on this. Thank you, very much, for your support!
The Independent Charities Seal of Excellence is awarded to the members of Independent Charities of America and Local Independent Charities of America that have, upon rigorous independent review, been able to certify, document, and demonstrate on an annual basis that they meet the highest standards of public accountability, program effectiveness, and cost effectiveness. These standards include those required by the US Government for inclusion in the Combined Federal Campaign, probably the most exclusive fund drive in the world. Of the 1,000,000 charities operating in the United States today, it is estimated that fewer than 50,000, or 5 percent, meet or exceed these standards, and, of those, fewer than 2,000 have been awarded this Seal. Any Soldier Inc. is proud to be one of them!

HOT TIP: PLEASE don't even consider doing a 'collection' unless you have actually sent at least one care package yourself!
Idea for your office: instead of doing the 'gift exchange' again, put that money together to send something worthwhile to the troops, like something from here...
Scam!!
Folks, I am getting notified (often) of door-to-door sales people selling stuff in the name of AnySoldier.com. We do NOT do this, do NOT allow it, and simply won't stand for it. It is a scam and if someone hits you up for a 'donation' or 'sale' at your door, do NOT give them anything unless you really, really want to, and call your local police. I would be very happy to talk to the police about this, they can email me first and I will call them. Thanks, and sorry about the slime attack. Wish they would come to MY door... -marty
