Supporting our heroes, one pack at a time!
Thank you. Today you are partnering with Operation Support Our Troops to assemble support packs for U.S. service members who are currently deployed. These packs provide comfort items, activities, and personal messages that offer a direct reminder to our troops that they are seen, valued, and supported - no matter where they are stationed.
We work to keep things as simple as possible. If you have any questions, please get in touch with your event coordinator or reach out to “Kai” (WeHero Super Dog) in the lower-right corner of this page.
You will assemble two support packs today. The checklist below shows exactly what to include in each drawstring bag. Please use the Sharpies provided to decorate the bags stick to simple designs or short, uplifting messages. Please avoid anything political, or religious.

We have partnered with Cool Effect on The Mare Chicose landfill project in Mauritius to reduce methane emissions, generate electricity, create jobs, and promote sustainable development. Investing in the project helps reduce our carbon footprint and support global climate change mitigation.
