Our Story
HEROES IN ACTION Military Support Outreach is based out of Toledo, Ohio. We are committed to supporting our service members and their families.
The marines, soldiers, airmen, sailors, and coast guard have a mission - to PROTECT our country, our families, and our children. Freedom is not free. We also have a mission - to SUPPORT, communicate, send care packages overseas, and to encourage the families here at home.
We want every man and woman serving our country to know they are not forgotten, that they are loved, and that there are people who care.
The first care packages were shipped in December 2004 and have been shipped every month since then. We have shipped thousands of boxes overseas as well as several in state to the wounded or those on special days who are without family. When a service member is added to our list, whether in or out of the states, they are supported by letters and/ or a monthly care package. Our outreach has touched hundreds of men and women serving our country.
Heroes in Action also is a support for the families with personal needs, housing and auto repairs, food baskets, newborn baskets, blankets for the wounded and whatever else we are able to do. A monthly support group is held to educate, prepare and equip families with benefit information and emotional issues that may occur with service members returning home.
