Care package items for the Neil's Marine unit

Never underestimate the power of mail call. For the men and women on the front lines, getting a package from home could make their day…or even their month.

The team at ProMark Offroad is betting on the power of a package to support one of our own. Neil, the son and brother of three of our employees, is a Marine and currently deployed in Afghanistan.

In support of Neil and his squad, the ProMark team is sending out monthly care packages to let our service members know they are not forgotten.

Chasity, our VP of Customer Relations, organized the care package project. As a military wife who survived a year-long deployment, Chasity has a heart for supporting the military.

She describes Neil’s situation as a tough one: “He has been deployed since October and has 4 more months to go. Neil and his squad are based in very remote locations without very nice, comfortable accommodations. His work is intense and often requires the whole squad to be ‘on the front line.’”

February’s care package was themed around Valentine’s Day, with gifts relating to hearts and body parts: knitted hats for cold heads, Trail Mix for hungry stomachs, chapstick for chapped lips, and tattoos for bare skin.

As Chasity said, “It takes just a moment of time to donate an item or a letter or funny card – but it makes a huge difference to our service members — to know they are not forgotten and to know we are thinking and praying for them.”

Let’s hear it for the boys!
