Sandboxx’s mission is anchored in three key priorities: First, fostering a diverse and inclusive community to effectively support military families and service members. Second, ensuring accessible and meaningful resources are available to keep the military community connected. Third, continuously innovating to deliver sustainable and efficient solutions that meet the evolving needs of our users.
In the digital age, Sandboxx has transformed the way military members and their friends and families connect and support each other. Sandboxx Letters turn the simplicity of a message into a powerful gesture of care. It’s these acts of kindness, tailored to the unique needs of military life, that inspire the continuous development of tools and features on Sandboxx, fostering the best of what people can do together in times of separation or need.
From Parris Island, SC to San Diego, CA, we have been committed to serving the Marine Corps since 2015.
We’ve supported nearly 150,000 friends and family and 80,000 new recruits in the past two years alone.
Being the largest branch, we’ve been fortunate to support new recruits from all four basic training locations.
We’ve maintained Lackland AFB support for years, and we supported the pilot at Keelser AFB from 2019-2020.
Small but mighty. We’ve empowered nearly 90% of all new recruits to stay connected with their friends and family.
Sandboxx changes the way the military communicates by allowing service members, recruits, and their families to send and receive letters, photos, and support, particularly during basic training or deployment.
We’ve sent over 10 million letters to recruits and deployed service members worldwide in the past 8 years. With around 4 million users, we’re a critical resource for most of the U.S. military.
Sandboxx helps to keep new recruits engaged and reduce dropout rates from the delayed entry program to basic training. This is particularly important given the challenges in military recruitment and the high employment rates in recent times.
The Sandboxx app has been instrumental in the U.S. Army’s recruitment efforts, particularly through the Prep for Success Digital Engagement program. This program aims to provide future Soldiers with the resources and coaching they need to succeed in basic training and beyond.

Prioritizing customer feedback is a key element in our success. By focusing on the insights and suggestions from our users, including service members and their families, we can continuously refine and enhance our features to better meet their specific needs.
This approach helps in creating a more engaging and supportive experience, particularly important in the unique context of military life. Whether it’s improving communication channels, simplifying the process of sending letters, or introducing new functionalities, customer feedback guides us in making decisions that resonate with our customers.
Such commitment to user feedback not only fosters a stronger community but also reinforces our role as a vital tool in maintaining connections and support within the military network.
We are dedicated to supporting the friends and families of military personnel by bridging the communication gap during challenging times like basic training and deployments. Our platform enables loved ones to easily send letters and photos to their service members, ensuring that despite the physical distance, the emotional connection remains strong.
We also provide valuable resources and updates to help families understand the nuances of military life, making their journey through the complexities of military service less daunting.
