IPMS MOSS Supports

At Models for Troops, we provide a 2-fold service to our United States military community, both active duty and retired. We support disabled and injured veterans through group builds and supplying model kits at multiple VA Hospitals. We also act as a Point of Contact for active duty personnel being deployed overseas through the IPMS USA Support the Troops initiative.
Through your generous donations, we have developed a program called “Kit Up”. We provide troops stationed in Afghanistan with packages containing plastic model kits of all scales and subject matter, sanding sticks, glues, trimmers, blades, acrylic paints, brushes, and model building magazines. From August 2012 to November 2013, over 864lbs. of kits and building supplies have been distributed.
As part of larger VA recreational therapy programs, we help veterans suffering from PTSD,TBI and other post combat related issues find a way to refocus the minds attention. Much like meditation, we have found that building plastic model kits is a great way to tie the veteran’s past to a more positive present and future. A little goes a long way.
If you know of a deployed or injured service member who would enjoy our services or if you would like to make a donation or start your own local program, please contact me and we can discuss any questions or concerns you may have.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Regards,
Jon Emery
