Welcome to SupportTheTroops.com

Our mission is to encourage support for the non-profit groups that provide direct services to U.S. troops and their families and to wounded veterans and their families and to publicize the great work these groups do. We do this by regular outreach to radio stations nationwide and other media outlets.

We also highlight issues relating to legislation that is important to military members and veterans. For example, even thought the federal budget is now $2.9 trillion dollars there are still gaping holes in benefits for our most seriously wounded veterans.

Please take the Quiz to learn about the problem. Help us help our most seriously wounded troops and their families

Help a Veteran Blinded in Action in Iraq or Afghanistan!

Over 145 Soldiers and Marines have suffered serious eye injuries in combat and at least 25 are totally blind. You can help send a young veteran blinded in Iraq or Afghanistan to the national convention of the Blinded Veterans Association (BVA)  in Buffalo, NY this August. The BVA is the congressionally chartered 501(c)3 nonprofit group that helps blind veterans.

Each $1800 raised will send a young, recently blinded veteran, along with a family member, to the BVA national convention so they can meet other veterans blinded in Iraq and to share strength with blinded vets from WWII, Korea and Vietnam. Your tax deductible donations can be made over the phone.

To donate by phone call the Blinded Veterans Association at (800) 669-7079 and ask for Lauren Bowles or send your check made out to BVA to:

Blinded Veterans Association,
attn: convention grants
477 H st NW
Washington, DC 20001
