Energy drinks are a big favorite of deployed troops around the world and are often supplied in Soldiers' Angels care packages.  Knowing how popular these energy drinks are, Dan Leon, founder of the Hero Organization, approached Hero Energy Shot to see if there was a way to cost-efficiently supply these drinks.  A partnership was soon formed, with all three organizations working together to support the troops.

In addition to providing a high-quality drink for deployed troops through this partnership, Hero Energy Shot is supporting the work of Soldiers' Angels and the Hero Organization through proceeds from sales of the energy drink on the open market at HeroEnergyShot.com.  

"We are excited to be associated with Hero Energy Shot, which so closely matches what we are trying to do and provides a type of product that is so needed by our troops," says Soldiers' Angels Executive Director, Toby Nunn.  "It's a terrific partnership because Hero Energy Shot is already donating a portion of their proceeds to organizations like ours who support our military personnel and veterans."

ABOUT HERO ENERGY SHOT: Hero Energy Shot was created to honor America's heroes in uniform.  It is available online and gives back proceeds from every purchase to nonprofit organizations that support the armed forces, police, firefighters and EMT's.
