Soldiers' Angels Day at Ranger Up
On Wednesday, February 17, online apparel store Ranger Up is taking its continuing support for Soldiers' Angels to another level with “Soldiers’ Angels Day.”
Ranger Up will be donating 20% of the price of everything they sell on February 17 to Soldiers’ Angels! In addition, Ranger Up will use their contacts and resources to spread the word about Soldiers' Angels Day and the work of Angels in support of the troops.
Chief Marketing Officer Garrett Schemmel says Soldiers’ Angels Day is part of a new concept that Ranger Up hopes to be able to repeat for other military and first responder support organizations, but Soldiers' Angels was an obvious choice to kick things off. “As we have such a long-standing relationship with Soldiers Angels, we naturally want to do this for you guys first. Our customer base has expanded very fast and so it seemed like a good fit to help out and let more people know about Soldiers’ Angels.”
A veteran-owned business known for military-themed clothing designs and gear, last year Ranger Up created the Soldiers' Angels Protector T-shirt and added the Angel logo to Mixed Martial Arts fighter Tim Kennedy’s shorts for his televised matches.
Soldiers' Angels salutes Ranger Up for their continued service both in and out of uniform, and encourages all Angels to spread the word about this great opportunity.

Since my husband is military, people are always telling me they want to do something to give back. Recently I discovered "Soldiers Angels" and all that they do. I will be telling everyone that if they want to make a difference to donate their time or money to this wonderful program. You all are amazing! - Brenda
