| July 19 Pack Day Recap
 Summer is halfway over, and that meant it was time for MarineParents.com's third Care Package Project™ pack day of 2014! On Saturday, July 19, volunteers from across the country showed their support for our troops by coming to our corporate office in Columbia, MO, to pack and ship care packages to Marines deployed to Afghanistan.

 | | Wounded, Ill, and Injured Warrior Support Team™ Focus
 This pack day was unique in that, due to a decrease in the number of troops who will be deployed, it was the last of our "traditional" quarterly pack days (don't fear though, we'll still send care packages overseas, just in a different capacity). Additionally, this pack day saw us unveil our newest outreach program, the Wounded, Ill, and Injured Warrior Support Team™, a program that combines elements of three of our previous support programs-Purple Heart Hero Support, the Care Package Project, and Combat Recovery-to provide resources, support, fellowship, and social events to wounded, ill, and injured troops and veterans.
