Local Group Assists Soldiers at Home and Over Seas

Local Group Assists Soldiers at Home and Over Seas

Military Moms of Texas

With Texas ranking number one in total military recruits and number 2 in Iraqi War casualties, the need for a strong support network is inevitable. When local Army mom, Tracy La Porte, watched her son deploy she knew she needed to find like-minded people to share the daily struggles of having a Soldier overseas. When she began her search for such a network, there was little to be found. In October 2009 she formed Military Moms Of Texas, a group that not only provides a support for its members and Texas Soldiers, but also prepares care packages for soldiers, collects foods for military families, welcome home and send off our troops, assist the wounded warriors, assist in deployment and tend to the needs of our Soldiers, and more.

This month, Military Moms of Texas is in urgent need of monetary donations for  care package supplies and shipping costs for our deployed Soldiers by March 21st.    We have a special request and urgent need for care packages for the Soldiers to have an Easter shipment while on dangerous missions. These are Soldiers that are in compromised locations and in urgent need of items.  The Soldiers adopted by Military Moms of Texas are without the basic necessities and without family to support them. Military Moms Of Texas is reaching out to local families, businesses and organizations for assistance in helping provide for these brave Soldiers. Military Moms of Texas represents the entire central Texas community through generous donations to those that fight for our freedom.

Military Moms Of Texas provides continuous support by sending care packages, adopting deployed Soldiers and their families, partnering with Great Oaks 5th grade to collect items and send inspirational cards, send off and welcoming home troops. Our Deployed Night Out program will feature local businesses and local organizations that provide Soldiers with various certificates to entertainment venues, dining, and much more. “It is our way of saying thank you. Giving our Soldiers a night out when they are deploying, returning home or during R&R—it helps them to know how important they are to us and gives them a sense of normalcy to cut loose and have fun” says Military Moms of Texas founder, Tracy LaPorte.

To get involved, and help this immediate request please mail your donations to: Military Moms Of Texas, P.O. Box 1627, Round Rock, TX, 78680.

For more information on how to become a donor and help this cause, email tlaporte@militarymomsoftexas.org.
