Our injured Marines need your support through Prayers and Letters. We invite you to participate in this project as an individual or as an organization to send much needed prayers, letters and cards to the Marines who have been injured or become ill while serving in combat zones, as well as Marines that have recently served, and then been injured or become ill.

Support for these outstanding Marines from the public is paramount to recovery. Each journey can be long and is often painful. You can help make a difference in the lives of these young men and women. Send a “Thank You” today.

Family, friends, Marines and military personnel are encouraged to notify Operation PAL™ of injured or ill Marines and Navy Corpsmen to request support through the program.

Over 10,000 cards and letters were delivered to Marines and Navy Corpsmen in the first year of the all-volunteer operation. To assure privacy, your letters and cards are addressed to the first name of each Marine and then mailed to a MarineParents.com address. Volunteers then sort the cards and letters and mail them in packets to each individual Marine. Volunteers work daily to add Marines and update their status toward recovery on the public web site.

We need you to send each of these Marines a card or letter and add them to your prayer lists. The list of Marine names and status updates are available on the web site. Please check the list frequently for additions and names that have been removed.

Send your cards and letters to our Georgia-based office. Cards should be addressed as follows:

Marine’s Name
c/o Operation PAL™
PO Box 670328
Marietta, GA 30066

MarineParents.com has added a new service for the family members who are at the bedsides of our injured Marines through our program called "Purple Heart Family Support™". We provide a meal one weekend day each month to the Marines and their families at Bethesda Naval Hospital. This came about during a visit in October, 2006. At that time we learned the area has very few resources for quality meals for the families during the weekend. We hope to extend this service to several military hospitals in the future.

Please contact us if you are interested in volunteering your time or making a monetary donation to support this new project of MarineParents.com.
