Where can I find information about sending care packages overseas if I don't know anyone personally deployed?

Every so often I would like to organize a fundraiser to collect items to donate to our brothers and sisters overseas but I have no idea where to send them. Has anyone encountered a good POC for something like this?

easy! just talk to your first sergeant and have them send out an email to all the other first sergeants on base, and ask if they've got any airmen downrange. then you can simply go through their first shirt to get them everything they need/want. i've done the same thing before, and it really helps build bonds between units on station that normally wouldn't talk to each other. cheers!
