Adopting a Military Family
Help bring joy to military children this holiday season

Each year Operation Homefront holds several events in order to meet the needs of military families during the holiday season. We cannot provide food and gifts without your help and it’s not too early to start planning now. Below are several ways that you can bring a smile to a child this holiday season and support our military, including adopting a family!

ADOPT A FAMILY: You can give a most precious gift of adopting a military family this holiday season. If you would like to sponsor a family, please contact naomi.rosen@operationhomefront.net. Or call (866) 424- 5210. Details are on our web site.

OUR GIFT TO YOU: Gift bags laden with the makings of a holiday dinner are given to over 1000 families in December. A donation of $35 allows donors to sponsor one bag of food complete with all of the trimmings.

FOOD DRIVE: You may donate non-perishable food to Operation Homefront families to help stock our warehouse throughout the year and provide assistance for families during the holiday season.

TOY DRIVE: You may donate toys for military children for Our Gift ToYou event and the Wounded Warrior Christmas Party. Toys for girls and boys ages 2 to 14 are needed.
