As a PenPal, we ask that you write your service-member once a week. It doesn't have to be a long letter, but just a card of cheer, newspaper clipping, or something of that nature. Below is a short form you might want to send your servicemember, so you will know more about them and their correct information.

As a supporter, we ask that you write once a week and send a small care package at least once a month. You will find suggested care package items on our care package page. Be sure to also visit the packing instructions page for important shipping information.

Suggested questions to ask your service-member:

• Birthday
• favorite types of movies
• favorite types of books/magazines
• favorite foods/snacks
• hobbies
• dates of any special events taking place during your deployment (i.e. birth of child, anniversary, etc.)
• special requests?
