| Support-A-Soldier Is Honored To Serve Those Who Serve Us |
Welcome and thank you for your interest in helping our men and women in the Armed Forces.
'Support-A-Soldier' Clearinghouse, Inc ("SaS") is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization formed and managed by family and friends of soldiers, who contribute their time, energy and ideas to help raise money to buy needed gear and equipment for the deployed soldiers who contact us. We get requests for items that our military men and women are purchasing out of their own pockets. Indeed, our military provides for our soldiers, but as you can imagine, there are certain items and specific requests for kit or mission specific gear that a soldier realizes will make his deployment more comfortable, perhaps a bit easier and on occasion, safer.
Our goals here at 'SaS' are quite simple and two-fold.
Primary Mission~
To Provide US Military Men And Woman With Non-Lethal Ancillary Equipment And Other Necessities, Thereby Improving Their Safety, Readiness, Comfort And/Or Efficiency In Areas Of Combat Operations.
Secondary Mission~
To Provide The American Public With A Means To Directly Support The Military That Serves Them And Establish A Mutually Beneficial Relationship That Promotes A Positive Understanding Between Soldier And Citizen.
This is a forum that is designed to connect YOU, the American citizen, to those who defend you and the things you hold dear.
**note-- the word "soldier" is used throughout this website as a generic term to identify an individual in any of our armed forces. We are honored to provide for all branches of the military.**
***Photos in this website that have faces blurred are those of Special Forces operators who we have supported and who for security reasons, cannot have their faces shown***

Some of our contribution/ donations went to a group of Soldiers here in Colorado to help with their training in conducting building/room clearing operations. Various situations were designed for the troops to have practice in tactically clearing rooms/houses while working on transitioning smoothly from their primary weapon (rifle) to a secondary (pistol) in case of a weapon malfunction or depletion of ammo. As Sergeant Powell reported, "The training went better than expected and 100% of the Soldiers said they would do it again and again if they had the opportunity."
