Different ways you can help
Each donation will receive a mention on our website. If you are donating on behalf of a company, we’ll post your logo
and link to your website. If you’re an individual, we'll list your name and will link to your email or personal website
if you choose.
Donate a Beanie Baby
If you have a Beanie Baby or two (or twenty!) around the house, why not give it to a child who will cherish the gift for the
rest of his or her life?
Each Beanie Baby donated is sent directly to United States soldiers. A separate letter is sent directly to the GI mentioning
you, the donor, by first name. If we receive a thank you reply mentioning your name, we will contact you.
In addition, when the package is mailed, we'll notify you by email that it has been sent and who it's been sent to.
It’s a direct way for you to see how your donation helps.
Donate money for postage
We ship packages of Beanie Babies using United States military guidelines and packaging. Each standard issue box costs $9.80
to mail regardless of weight. We can fit 20 to 22 Beanie Babies in each package. Your donation of $9.80 will send
an entire package of Beanie Babies to kids around the globe.
Donate money towards the purchase of
a soldier care package
For every three boxes of beanies that we send to a soldier we add a fourth box - a care package for the soldier to share with
the others in their unit. We find out if there is anything special that they would like and then try to send what they request.
We have sent everything from razors, coffee, screwdrivers, and batteries to socks! Sometimes they do not request anything
and in that case we send them whatever we think they would like. If you are interested in donating money to help purchase
items for these care packages, we would very much appreciate it. It gets rather expensive! We will mention that you donated
money for the contents of the packages plus it is tax deductible. All money donated will be solely used for purchasing items
for the care package.

In addition to a tax break for your donation, we still guarantee that every item or penny you donate will be given directly
to the soldiers.
