![]() Americas best and brightest our troops are still in harms way! Dont let them face the enemy alone! We began Troopathon in 2008 with a mission of sending care packages to troops serving overseas in the War on Terror. With over 38,000 troops still in Afghanistan, there remains a huge need for support. The Troopathon brings together celebrities, actors, musicians, professional athletes, elected officials and military veterans to participate in an 8-hour fundraiser event to benefit deployed troops. Our broadcasts have featured pro-troop celebrities like Gov. Sarah Palin, Gov. Mike Huckabee, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Mark Levin, Andrew Breitbart, Gary Sinise, Jon Voight, Coach K Mike Krzyzewski, General David Petraeus, Hulk Hogan, Gene Simmons and many more

Thank you very much, DivineMomentsOfTruth! God bless.
Larry need a BIGGER photo.
If you are watching the live feed, Melanie is interviewing a Marine Captain who she has known since he was a youngster.
He says the morale of those over in Afghanistan is quite high.
I’ll tell him.
Instead of you paying for a giant picture for him, why not donate the money to the Troopathon?

Wow RikaStrom thanks!
Did you see the working dog when it was on the stage?
Hey Syncro!
No, I totally missed that. That must have been an awesome sight.
I'll tell you a secret though. I decided back in Feb, that I wanted to join MAF's monthly hugs, where you sign up, and monthly they'll send out a care package to the troops. Well, the only way I could afford it was if I gave up smoking, soooo.. quit smoking in March, and now that I have figured out the financing, I can do a squad level care package once a month. I've decided to alternate between K9 and regular troop. :-)
Wow that’s awesome Rika!
Thanks a lot for the dedication to helping the troops through MAF
When you get a chance you can watch the archived stream of the Troopathon.
