Treats for Troops was founded in early 2003 by Denver business woman Deborah Crane, who was determined to make it safe and simple for every American to send packages and messages of support to our men and women in uniform year round.

Since the Treats for Troops Gift Shops opened in June of 2003, friends, family members, groups, organizations and individual sponsors have sent over twenty tons of treats to American soldiers through Treats for Troops.

Friends and family members tell us they love shopping in our Gift Shops, where they can choose from dozens of themed packages or hundreds of individual items, all selected after lots of input from soldiers and family members.

Individuals, organizations and groups who don’t personally know anyone in the military, but want to show their support can sponsor soldiers through our unique Foster-A-Soldier Program. Sponsors can choose their soldiers by branch of service, home state or gender.

Companies who are proud of our soldiers and would like to help us make sure packages are going out all year long can be part of our customized Corporate Sponsor Program.

We invite you to spend some time on our Web site, where you can read thank you notes from troops who’ve received packages, browse our Gift Shops, send a package to someone you know, sponsor a soldier, drop into a chat room, read comments from president Deborah Crane, send us your ideas and catch up on all the latest news and events.

Thanks to each and every one of you who sends a package that makes a soldier smile.
