Building Hope, Extending Compassion
 
MISSION STATEMENT:
PEACE THROUGH PUPPETS is dedicated to provide puppets to soldiers stationed in Iraq and Afghanistan who are serving in Civil Affairs or on medical teams. A request for 2 hand puppets from a soldier that would fit into his slash pockets sparked a movement based on three principles.

1) Peace Through Puppets is a non-profit organization dedicated to helping U.S. Soldiers stationed in Iraq and Afghanistan use puppets to communicate with children affected by war.

2) To give a U.S. soldier a communication tool that will lessen human suffering and fear specifically in children.

3) To extend humanitarian compassion through the medium of puppets that overcomes the barriers of language and trauma.

NOTE: Due to the tremendous amount of puppet donations received,
we will only be accepting monetary donations at this time.


Feel free to donate any amount. However, a financial donation of $20 would pay for
12 soft animal puppets and the cost of mailing them.
