This is our fourth year shipping Girl Scout Cookies® to the Marines in Iraq and Afghanistan, and this is the biggest shipment ever!
We have 1,000 cases of Girl Scout Cookies® (that's 12,000 boxes!) arriving in our warehouse in March. We'll ship these cookies to Marines deployed to Iraq in addition to our regularly scheduled care packages. That means we need to raise 100% of the funds to ship the cookies and we need your help collecting donations.
Click HERE to DONATE online.
The new flat rate boxes and discount to military APO/FPO addresses means we'll be spending just $10.95 per case to ship them once we re-package them into the new flat rate boxes. Our goal this year is to raise $10,950 to get the cookies shipped to Iraq by the first of April.
Every year the girl scout troops in Connecticut donate the cookies to the MarineParents.com Care Package Project™. The brownies and girl scouts work hard to make sure our combat deployed Marines are included in this time-honored American tradition and a true taste of home. We get thank you notes from Marines commenting on how grateful they are to receive the cookies. We've got a note written on the back of a cookie box as a matter of fact--a true treasure and testament to serving our troops who so selflessly serve for us.
Let your friends and neighbors know we need their help shipping the cookies overseas. To donate, mail a check or money order to:
MarineParents.com, Inc.
Attn: Girl Scout Cookie Shipping
PO Box 1115
Columbia, MO 65205
You can also donate online using any major credit card:

Thank you for your help!
