Care Packages for Fort Drum Soldiers
Our Fort Drum Soldiers are deploying overseas for up to 9 months, and we’re coming together to remind them they are supported and appreciated.
This is a low-cost, grassroots effort that makes a big impact. Sponsors send letters, birthday and holiday cards, and care packages using flat-rate boxes to Soldiers’ Army Post Office (APO) addresses.
How you can help:
Donate $60 total with receipts
Items must be able to ship or a Visa gift card (to help cover postage)
Include letters or notes addressed to the entire platoon — children and classrooms are encouraged!
As we get to know our platoons, we’ll continue adding items based on what the Soldiers actually need. Once packages are received, Soldiers typically respond by email.
We will be sending in the care packages the 1st of every month, from March-December.
Questions? Call or text Marie Weiss at 315-264-4584 to get signed up.
Let’s show our Soldiers they have a community standing behind them — all the way from home!
