About Troopster
Established in 2015 by Founder, Chelsea Mandello
Troopster was founded Thanksgiving Day 2015, by, then active-duty, US Navy Petty Officer Chelsea Mandello.
Chelsea first had the idea of Troopster while serving as a photojournalist on board her seventh ship, forward-deployed in the Mediterranean to support anti-piracy operations. Chelsea noticed that the few individuals who received care packages were rarely able to use or eat the contents inside. After returning from deployment, she worked tirelessly to develop an easier process for friends and families to send military care packages.
As a result, she decided to help not only simplify the tedious task of sending military care packages, but also give an option for those service members without families at home to still receive care packs.
Veteran Owned
Troopster Military Care Packages is a web-based, veteran-owned business where family and friends of deployed service members purchase and personalize military care packages for their loved ones online.

You’ve come to the right spot!

Take a look at some of the awesome themes we’ve put together:
Subscribe & save!
As veterans ourselves, we know how stressful a deployment can be, both for the service member abroad, and the loved ones back home.
So, Troopster set up a military care package subscription option to make at least one task a little easier.
- Instead of dealing with the hassles of the post office once a month, put support for your deployed loved one on repeat and turn any of our awesome military care packages into monthly subscriptions.
- When you select this great option on the check-out page, you’ll receive a 10 percent discount!
