Adopt a Platoon
Being able to give back has been a tremendous component in our
strategic plans over the year. As you may know, since 2007 our
Community Involvement Committee’s focus has been on the USMC - Adopt a
Platoon Campaign. On January 4th the fine men of the USMC Delta Company
will be deploying to the Middle East. This is the time when we ask for
our members support in a few ways

Adopt a Marine/Buddy Program
On approximately January 20th the fine men of the USMC Delta Company will be deploying to the Middle East. There is a great opportunity for you to get involved now and deepen the already strong relationship and commitment we have with the USMC. In conjunction with Delta Company, we would like to invite you to participate in the “Adopt a Marine/Buddy program”.
The Program
The Adopt a Marine Buddy Program begins upon their deployment. There are 89 men deploying. We (NAIOP) will pair you up with one of the men of Delta Company, provide you with his mailing address. They love to receive mail, magazines, words of encouragement, words from home and care packages. They are great people to get to know and we believe the relationship will be one that means a lot to you. (We encourage family member participation) It is that simple! .
The Time Committment
They will typically be deployed for 7-8 months. We ask that if you can
participate in the program, that you do commit to communicating with
them during their entire deployment. We will also be holding a welcome
home party for them upon their return which you will be invited to. Based upon input from the Marines and their families, NAIOP members are compiling a list of useful items to send to the Marines throughout their deployment, as well as ways they can help the families left behind make it through these tough times.
Donation
If you are unable to participate, perhaps you are willing to make a donation towards NAIOP’s Community Involvement Campaign. Any dollar amount is acceptable made payable to NAIOP. We can invoice you also if needed and you can pay by credit card as well.
These are terrific men who continue to give to our country and help protect its freedom. Their level of commitment is huge. Anything we can do as an organization to make their time abroad more comfortable is important. If you are interested, please reply back and we will connect you.
YES, I would like to participate in the NAIOP's Developing Leaders Give Back Committee!
