 We raise funds to pay the shipping costs
on packages sent to our deployed troops.
Why do we do this?
|
- Many families, friends, churches, schools, and organizations collect items for our troops only to have difficulty finding the money needed to pay for shipping these collections. OGIT will fill that money gap with tax-deductible donations to pay for this expense.
- For the positive impact receiving packages from home has on our troops
- So families, friends, churches, schools and organizations can concentrate on collecting and packing items for our troops
- To show our gratitude for those who sacrifice so much

About Us
|
- Package collection & shipping activities began in 2004 when a coworker's son was deployed to Iraq.
- These support activities accelerated in 2005 when a coworker was deployed to Afghanistan.
- Due to the overflow of collections, packages were also sent to other deployed troops.
- In 2005 both men returned home safely, however collection & shipping activities continued in support of our other deployed troops.
- In 2006 OGIT was incorporated, continuing to support our deployed troops.
