AdoptaPlatoon - Supporting our deployed sons and daughters. The AdoptaPlatoon Soldier Support Effort is a nonprofit 501C-3
organization managed nationwide by volunteer mothers to ensure that deployed United States service members in all branches
of the military are not forgotten and to promote patriotism in our schools and communities.
CellPhonesForSoldiers.com Cell Phones for Soldiers was created by two teenagers, 13 year old Brittany Bergquist and her brother,
12 year old Robbie Bergquist, of Norwell, Mass. After reading a story about a soldier who ran up a huge phone bill calling home,
the two teenagers decided to try and help. Their goal is to try and help our soldiers serving in Iraq and elswhere pay for calls home.
They plan to provide as many soldiers as possible with pre-paid cell phones or calling cards.
