Troopathon V “Never Forget Our Troops”
Some helpful facts to know about this star studded fundraiser


non-profit charity dedicated to serving those who protect us: our brave troops.  

Troopathon V is a month-long care package drive that culminates in a star-studded

 8-hour web-a-thon broadcast on July 12th from the Army Depot in Sacramento, CA.

 

Some Useful Facts About Troopathon:

·         Troopathon is a non-partisan non-political effort. We work with celebrities from Hollywood, television, the music industry, sports heroes and athletes, bloggers, journalists, radio personalities, academics, experts in the field, and elected officials to bring together a wide variety of guests to support our troops.

·         This year Troopathon is hosted by Melanie Morgan who continues to be a voice for our troops through her  career behind the microphone at KSFO radio in San Francisco. She is joined by former Congressman J.D. Hayworth, radio host and editor-in-chief at Big Journalism Dana Loesch and Gold Star Mom Debbie Lee.

·         This year’s program is dedicated to the memory of Andrew Breitbart, who was a guest host for the past 3 Troopathon broadcasts and a dedicated supporter of the troops. We will celebrate his life and honor the troops he gave so much of his time for.

·         Past Troopathons have included an amazing array of guests from every type of industry. Some of our notable past guests have included:

 

Gold Star Mom Debbie Lee     Current Navy SEALs    Michelle Malkin    Laura Ingraham

Lars Larson    Mark Levin    Andrea Shea King     Ann Coulter    Sean Hannity
Dr. Laura Schlessinger    Tammy Bruce     Sarah Palin     Charlie Daniels

John Ratzenberger     Kelsey Grammer     Gary Sinise     Jon Voight    Kevin Farley

John Ondrasik     Gavin DeGraw     Curtis Sliwa     Rush Limbaugh

Mike "Coach K" Krzyzewski     Greg Gutfeld    Monica Crowley    Gerald McRaney      Buzz Aldrin
Robert Davi      Pat Sajak      Wayne Newton      Ambassador John Bolton        Dennis Miller

       Past Troopathon events have raised over $3.6 million for our troops. Last year, Troopathon raised over $500,000 but we’d like to break that total this year!
·         Care Packages sponsored through Troopathon are the easiest way to donate to the troops. No running to the store, no confusing customs forms and postal regulations. Simply donate with your credit card and MAF’s team of dedicated volunteers will send the care packages on your behalf. It’s also tax-deductible!

·         Each care package includes a special note written by the donor expressing their appreciation for the sacrifice our troops make. Packages can be sponsored for as low as $25 for a single serviceman, up to $1,000 for a Battalion Pack which will serve up to 60 soldiers, marines, sailors and airmen.

·      

We’re proud of the success we’ve had in fighting to make America an even greater nation. Unlike those who constantly criticize our great nation and our military men and women, we see a future where freedom and liberty create endless opportunities for Americans and our friends and allies in a more secure world.
