Value proposition

We provide the physical and emotional support our heroes need and deserve while away from home.

HeroBox is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that supports deployed service members. Our mission is to ensure that every American hero receives the physical and moral support they deserve while away from home.

HeroBox evolved from a family's simple effort of supporting their hero. HeroBox founder Ryan Housley learned during his brother's deployment that many service members were not receiving any support from home. He also noticed that all deployed service members have specific needs depending on their gender, location and a variety of other factors. Most care packages are generic and don't provide the items our heroes need.

Ryan worked with brother to develop a web platform that would connect the American people with their heroes instantly online. Thus giving service members the ability to request specific items and providing Americans with a way to directly support the troops.

HeroBox.org was launched in May 2008 to support this vision.
