Looking for a classroom project with real-world impact? The FSO Classroom Companion connects students with deployed service members in meaningful and lasting ways. When students write to a service member, they’re not just practicing kindness, they’re learning civic responsibility, empathy, and the power of gratitude in action. 

This educational experience enhances grammar, composition, and letter-writing skills, while deepening students’ understanding of geography as they learn where troops are stationed around the world. It also offers opportunities to explore American history, the role of the U.S. military, and ongoing current events that affect service members and their families. 

By engaging with this program, students gain a broader worldview, sharpen their communication abilities, and discover how even a simple letter can uplift morale and remind our troops they are not forgotten. The FSO Classroom Companion turns compassion into action, one student, one letter, one hero at a time.
