    Description

    Programs

    Operation Homefront offers programs in the areas of emergency services, educational services, and morale programs.

    Our goal is to make a difference in the quality of life for our military families, and our programs were developed based on our extensive research into the needs of military families as well as our own experience as active duty families. Operation Homefront has been sensitive to integrate programs alongside those being offered by other agencies, and we strive to achieve the largest impact with the least amount of expended resources. We continuously monitor our programs, liaison with other relief agencies, and measure our success in affecting the quality of life of military families.

     


    Programs Currently Offered by Oregon's Chapter

    • Emergency Assistance to Deployed Military Families and
      Wounded Warriors
      • Emergency Food
      • Urgent/Critical health care assistance
      • Critical baby needs
      • Financial assistance
      • Vehicle repairs and Vehicle donations
      • Furniture & household items
      • Emergency home repairs

    • Gift Boxes - Operation Homefront Oregon sends gift boxes to our deployed military on a monthly basis. Names and addresses are forwarded to us by family members.
      Lower income families have a hard time paying for postage to send items to their deployed loved one. We have stepped in and paid this postage, and continue to provide monthly boxes to these members of the military. This helps keep our deployed soldiers' morale at a high level.
    • Operation: Diaper Pail - Offers needed baby items to new babies of military families.
    • Operation: BackPack - Yearly distribution donated backpacks and school supplies to military families every August.
    • Blankets For Soldiers - Offers donated blankets and quilts to our Wounded Warriors.
      All blankets are mailed to Lunshul Regional Medical Center in Germany. This is where our wounded military are medically evacuated to from Iraq and Afghanistan before being evacuated home. These blankets help provide comfort for our wounded on their journey home.
