Dear Marine families,

The mission of MarineParents.com is to provide support, information, and services to recruit and Marine family members and troops over the course of the life-cycle of your recruit or Marine's career in the Corps.

Do you know about the Friends of Warriors Monthly Giving Program?  
The Friends of Warriors are a small group of dedicated people like you who are making a profound impact on the lives of our warriors through regular monthly gifts. Your monthly donation can be changed or cancelled at any time by contacting us. Please consider joining our monthly giving program, even if it's just $5.00 per month, to help us support wounded and recovering warriors and their family members.

You can make a one-time donation or join our monthly program, by clicking here.

Thank you for supporting our troops!

God bless and Semper Fi!
MarineParents.com Meet n' Greet

On July 21, 2018 MarineParents.com volunteer, Christi DeSimone, hosted a meet and greet for Marine family members in Colorado. There was a great turnout and everyone enjoyed talking about their Marines and sharing stories. The guests expressed their appreciation for MarineParents.com. Christi says, “ I heard so much positive feedback about how much the families in Colorado LOVE MarineParents and what we are about and what we do! Many, like myself, don’t know what we would have done without the love and support... ”

Each person received a luminary bag to honor Gold Star Families on Gold Star Family Day on September 30 of this year. Everyone expressed a desire to have another meet and greet in the future.
