I'm happy to report that she got to Afghanistan safely. Got stuck in Kyrgyzstan for a bit, but bummed a ride on a C-17 and finally made it. She's busy working and making friends already.
Rather than post her address publicly, I'll send it out by PM. If you would like it, just let me know or shoot me a PM.
If you're planning to mail stuff, know that it is very much appreciated. Very much appreciated. Whatever she receives, I know she will also share with her fellow Airman. Unfortunately, not everyone over there has such wonderful and loving support as this.
Keep in mind that there are prohibited items that cannot be sent. This is a pretty good site highlighting the basics. I think there's a more comprehensive list on the USPS site.
Thanks, everyone!

Manas AFB in Kyrghystan. I remember that place well *funny* Another thing you can do for her is to go to a FB page titled Huddle Up For Heroes. A 12y/o young man runs it (while home schooled) and is doing a small tour with his mom to sell his "hero Bands," show his support for the troops, and wot-not (aspiring Marine I might add) to make money for care packages. I'm sure he would like to know this address, too, and his name is Christopher. His fan base has grown by the thousands IIRC in a few short months, too.
He will take any donations you wish to send and I'm positive he, along with his mom, does put it all toward the care packages.
