We continue to build upon the success of existing SFS programs to incorporate synergistic products, services, partnerships and initiatives that will benefit active duty armed forces, our injured, ill and fallen military, our Veterans, and their families.
Our targeted beneficiaries of new 2010 SFS programs will include Veteran non-profit organizations whose charters embody service to active duty Armed Forces, injured or ill Veterans and their families as well as Veteran organizations dedicated to reintegration, education and workforce investment for our military when they return home.
The success of our Gift Card Program, which undoubtedly could generate significant funding for numerous Veteran related non-profits, relies heavily on participation of Sponsors including Big Box Retail, Grocery, Restaurant and Small Business.
As many of the proposed Beneficiaries do not solicit donations or, as per their charter, are unable to incorporate funding strategies such as the SFS Gift Card Program, it is the goal of SFS to facilitate funding for qualifying organizations through Sponsors that would like to support these types of non-profits.

Shopping For Soldiers (SFS) would like to thank everyone who participated directly or indirectly for making our Holiday Gift Program 2009 an ultra success. We accomplished our mission in providing over one hundred gift baskets to injured soldiers from ALL Wars.

Welcome to Shopping For Soldiers (SFS).
Since 2008 SFS has been providing monthly and Holiday gift programs for our Veterans and their families, injured or ill military and their families, and for the families of our fallen military.
We plan to build upon the success of these programs to incorporate synergistic products, services and initiatives that will fully exploit the Shopping For Soldiers brand.
Through our new sponsorships and programs we will be able to support the existing programs operated through SFS today with the addition of new and unique programs that will benefit our sponsors, our sister and brother non-profits, and the many communities in which these new programs are launched.
The direct beneficiaries of these new programs will be our sister and brother non-profit organizations whose charters exemplify support for our active duty armed forces, our Veterans, injured, ill or fallen soldiers from ALL wars, and their families.
Please take a moment to peruse our website and please feel free to contact us any time.
Shopping for Soldiers is proud to announce that on December 20th, 2011 we will be delivering our Holiday Gift Baskets to our Veterans from All Wars to the VA Medical Center, Community Living Center and Fisher House, in West Palm Beach.

"My name is Jonathan and I was an E-4 in the 101st ABN. Recently I got the opportunity to attend the Superbowl XLIV thanks to David Meldeau and Shopping for Soldiers Needs. I just wanted to say it is not about me or David, it is about my brothers and sisters that are still out there sacrificing their comforts, freedoms and sometimes lives so that me and everyone here can get a taste of unaltered American freedom.
You are not alone out there guys, the American people are fully supporting your cause and hope you will get back home safe." ~ Jonathan M, E-4, 101st ABN
