THANK YOU AMERICA for remembering our troops
Almost $700,000 Raised for Care Packages for
Our Troops at Move America Forward's Troopathon
MAF raised almost $700,000 in the 8-hour broadcast to send care packages to the troops. You can still watch the 8 hour broadcast on our UStream channel by clicking the button above. This live event took place at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in Simi Valley, Calif. Enjoy the show!
You can still sponsor a care package that will make a real difference to the troops!
You can help make the daily routine of our troops serving
in Afghanistan and Iraq a little more bearable. We've heard from countless members of the Armed Forces serving in the Middle East that one precious resource in short supply is quality coffee. That's why Move America Forward wanted to send only the BEST GOURMET Coffee to the troops. And what better to enjoy with a cup of exquisite coffee but with name brand Oreo Cookies? Also included in MAF care packages are special treats from Jelly Belly jelly beans, part of our Candy Diplomacy Program. 
| Care Packages include many varieties of items, always with Coffee, Cookies, Beef Jerky, Gatorade and Jelly Bellys, and could also include any or all of the following: |
| Boca Java Gourmet Coffee Oreo Cookies Chap Stick Deodorant Premium Beef Jerky Planters Trail Mix Ocean Spray Craisins Trail Mix Gatorade Candy Diplomacy Jelly Belly Jelly Beans |
For The Troops CDs Hot Chocolate Hot Apple Cider Bug Repellent Battery Operated Fans Wet Wipes Foot Powder Sunblock |
| EVERY CARE PACKAGE comes with a personalized letter, note or comment from YOU to the receiving Soldier, Sailor, Marine, Airman or Coast Guardsman |
  Move America Forward makes it easy to sponsor a care package to the troops. There is no need to deal with the Post Office's confusing custom's forms, you don't have to find the address of one of the troops in Iraq or Afghanistan, and because we buy all the products in bulk, you can send more to the troops for your dollar than if you were to purchase the items at the store yourself. At our Care Package Headquarters based out of a warehouse on the outskirts of Sacramento, MAF packs care packages with the help of dozens of our dedicated volunteers. Many groups from the community have also volunteered to help pack care packages for the troops; including church groups, home schoolers, boy scouts and girl scouts, Republican and Democratic parties, school groups, police and firefighters, and many others. 
Some of our volunteers show up five days a week to help pack care packages for the troops Our warehouse is an ideal location to pack care packages, we have ample space to store products, fill the boxes, and the facilities necessary to ship and receive truckloads of care packages at a time. 
At our Care Package Facility we can easily ship thousands of packages at a time
 Move America Forward has kicked off our first ever Blogger Competition! Participation is simple: bloggers will organize into teams which will compete against one another to raise funds for the Troopathon. Each team will pick banner ads from our 'Media Kit' or use a hyperlink and post it to their blogs. When users sponsor care packages from your blogs, orders are recorded and tallied on our scoreboard! Each day we will tally every team's total care package sales and then we will update the current results. To view current scores or to participate visit our Blogger Competition page.
