Adopt
A Platoon (AAP)
The AdoptaPlatoon Soldier Support Effort is a
nonprofit 501C-3 organization managed nationwide
by volunteer mothers to ensure that deployed US
Service Members in all branches of the military
are not forgotten and to promote patriotism in
our schools and communities. To provide a better
deployment quality of life, lift morale, and assist
military families, the AAP created projects that
meet the need of military requests, established
special projects for holidays, and assigns individual
morale lifting mail support to deployed Service
Members of all branches of the U.S. military serving
their Nation around the world.
