TROY for Troops Challenge Coin

The Student Government Association has an initiative to support our troops currently
serving overseas who have a Troy connection – the Troy University Troy for Troops
challenge coins. Challenge coins are collector’s items for military men and women.
 Troy students, faculty, staff and alumni may send us the name of a loved one currently
deployed overseas and the SGA will send them a Troy for Troops challenge coin.  Please
email the SGA advisor, Barbara Patterson, bpatters@troy.edu, their name and address
and how they are affiliated with Troy and a coin  and letter will be mailed out to
them. 

This program is possible with the support of individuals buying the coins. If you
would like to support this program financially, you may purchase a challenge coin
and know that your purchase helps us to continue sending challenge coins out to currently
deployed service members.  Challenge coins are a wonderful gift for service members.
Cost for a challenge coin is $10 and orders are being taken now. If the coin must
be mailed, the cost is $13.00.  Coins are an inch and a half in diameter.  Here’s
how to order:

  • If you are on the Troy campus you may stop by the Troy SGA office, Trojan Center 215
    and pay by cash, check, Venmo or Cash App and receive your coin.
  • If you are not on the Troy campus and wish to pay by Venmo @TroyLead or Cash App $troylead,
    you will pay $13.00 and put your name and Troy Challenge Coin in the payment line
    and then email bpatters@troy.edu the mailing information of where to send the coin.
  • If you are not on the Troy campus and wish to pay by check, you will pay $13.00 made
    out to Troy SGA and mail that check and include your name, email, and the mailing
    address to send the coin to.  This will be mailed to:
