The Troop Group is making a difference

HORTONVILLE - Thousands of US service members will not be home for the holidays with their families, as they serve missions overseas.

That was the case for Donna Nickel's son, Joe in 2005.  It's why the organization, The Troop Group now exists.  Click here to learn more about how The Troop Group got started.

Every year, The Troop Group sends out thousands of Christmas and food packages to soldiers serving overseas, to remind them of the love and support they have back home in the US.  Click here to learn more about how you can help.
