Move America Forward has started its Troopathon effort for 2011, and Hot Air once again is sponsoring a blogger team in the competition! The Hot Air Steamers will square off against 5 other blogger teams — the COINS, Team 6, The Greyhawks, The Anti-Jihadists, and our friends at Free Republic on their own as The Freepers.

The Steamers team includes Maggie’s Notebook, Lonely Conservative, and No Sheeples Here. We’re combining up to sell care packages for our troops overseas.

Prices range from as low as $24.99 for individuals to battalion packs at $999.99:

You can help make the daily routine of our troops serving in Afghanistan and Iraq a little more bearable and thank them for their services all at the same time. We’ve heard from countless members of the Armed Forces serving in the Middle East about items that the military does not provide, are hard to come by and they really appreciate getting . That’s why Move America Forward has responded and compiled care packages that contain these goods as a way of saying “thank you” for their sacrifices and courage.

Most importantly, each care package will include a personal message written by you where you can express your gratitude to our military. Move America Forward is a 501(C)3 so all care package donations are tax deductible.

Care Packages include include any or all of the following: Gourmet Organic Coffee, Oreo Cookies, Deodorant, Candy, Diplomacy Jelly Belly Jelly Beans, Hot Chocolate, Hot Apple Cider ,Wet Wipes, Sunblock, Battery Operated Fans
