Defenders of Freedom is a Non Profit Organization (501c3) that has been faithfully serving the Troops for over 7 years. Sending care packages to the Troops deployed in Afghanistan, Iraq, and Kuwait, along with many other areas, has been the top priority from the beginning. As the war has prolonged, there has been an increasing need of help for the wounded Soldiers as they begin transitioning into their lives at home. Defenders of Freedom has been able to help meet the needs of some of these Soldiers. We also hope to increase the amount of help available to them through DOF. We thank each of our donors and volunteers for the increasing awareness and support of DOF.
