AnySoldier.com – Thanks!
We like to point out people and organizations that do a lot to for the military community. Recently,we have heard a lot of great feedback about AnySoldier.com, so we thought we would do a post talking about this great organization.
AnySoldier.com is an organization with the mission to encourage the support of American troops stationed abroad by simplifying the process of sending care packages to be distributed by servicemen and women associated with the
organization. They volunteer to distribute the containments of the packages they receive to soldiers in need. It’s a great way to show your support of the United States military forces.
AnySoldier.com has received many accolades, including these words from President George W. Bush, “Your [AnySoldier] organization’s troop posting help our citizens show their steadfast support for our Armed Forces and I am grateful. May God bless you and your family, and may God continue to bless America.”
Marty and his wife, Sue, started AnySoldier.com idea simply by sending care-packages to their son, Brian. He distributed some of the things he got to his fellow soldiers and soon enough he was getting packages specifically for distribution with the AnySoldier label on them. In order to further increase the number of packages for distribution, Marty started the website that eventually became AnySoldier.com. A few local TV and radio interviews raised the profile of the project and soon more soldiers were volunteering to distribute AnySoldier packages.
Since AnySoldier started including any member (active duty and reservists) of any of the Armed Services in January 2004 the site has grown to include over 3,700 volunteers distributing AnySoldier care-packages.
AnySoldier has tried to simplify the process of sending care packages in order to increase the number of packages sent. They make it quite easy to go online and find a soldier and their needs. They provide an in-depth question and answers page to address common issues newcomers to the site might have.
Major Michael Consiglio is in Afghanistan and is new to the AnySoldier program. He has this to say about AnySoldier.com: “The hearts of every soldier here in Jalalabad Airfield thank you and others who support us back home. It truly does make a different in our lives. May God bless and keep you and your family.”

Good folks from all over the U.S. have sent cards and boxes chock full of goodies and these troops really appreciate your efforts! Some guys will go days without a hot meal and might get to shower once a week so the “licky chewies” and toiletries are very much appreciated.

I just want to say thank you (1.000 times over) for all that you do and will do. You sacrifice so much for what so many take for granted. I admire every one of you and pray for you every day. You are the meaning of America and the true meaning of strength, pride and dedication.
Thank you so much,
Sheri Cartlidge and kids (Ashley, Joey and Nicky)
