We have made it our mission to bring the comforts of home to service members fighting overseas.  Care packages and letters are shipped by Truckee Meadows NV #3 Blue Star Mothers in an attempt to support the physical, mental, moral and spiritual health of America’s Armed Forces in combat zones and at military bases around the world.

Donation of goods are gladly accepted from individuals, families, businesses, organizations and the community at large.

A care package can cost approximately $50 in contents and to ship…so you see, we rely heavily on your generous donations and volunteer help to continue sending these care packages and notes from home. Just like cash donations, all goods donated are fully tax deductible because of our 501(c)3 non-profit status. If your’re thinking of donating food items, we can only accept unopened boxes/packages.

Operation Postcard– We need cards from the community and school kids. Please contact us if you would like to send cards to our active Military. Contact Terry:  Trmorter@aol.com

SENDING NEVADA LOVE

If you know of someone that is deployed out of the country in 2017 and would like to receive a care package from the Blue Star Mothers please message me with name & address and deployment dates. Paccellamom@gmail.com

Truckee Meadows NV3 Blue Star Mothers would like to say thank you to all the volunteer groups that have helped us send our care-packages to the deployed troops, USO’S, Hospitals and our local Deployed Nevada National Guard. We cannot have done this without your support of the American Lejion Post 1, American Lejion Post 30, local Girls Scouts, local Boy scouts, and the local community.
