Our wonderful volunteers made quilts for our veterans at the VA Hospital in Gainesville FL and Rosie Parent one of our volunteers and myself had the honor and privilege to take them to the VA hospital and meet some of our veterans who were so happy to get them. It truly was an honor to meet these veterans and see them smile.

New International Shipping Regulations

Operation Shoebox is updating our shipping process to meet new customs requirements. During this transition, there will be a short delay in shipments leaving our facility.

✅ Care packages will still go out — we’re simply adjusting behind the scenes to comply with the new rules and keep boxes from being returned.
✅ We are also updating our website with a new list of requested items to reflect what can safely be shipped.

👉 If you are sending your own Adopt-a-Troop packages, or shipping directly, please use ShipThrifty for the smoothest experience and best rates under the new rules.

Thank you for your patience and support — together we’ll keep the smiles and supplies flowing to our heroes overseas! 🫡
