"Valley Hero Relief 2014" Campaign

American Military Support is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing Quality of Life Packages (QLP) specifically to Rio Grande Valley troops and homeless veterans. AMS also provides a coffee service at the local VA clinic and provided veteran assistance to families.

The organization depends on monetary donations and support from the community in order to provide their services to our valley troops and local veterans.


American Military Support is continuously searching for volunteers who are willing to devote some of their time to this local organization.

Your support of this local organization will help provide summer comfort items for the summer QLP's  and will also help with the other projects mentioned.  


An easy way to submit news and stories that will draw IMMEDIATE attention is to share it on social media platforms.
