Operation Gratitude’s 2021 Halloween Candy Give Back Program was recently spotlighted on Wish TV, Indiana’s only statewide TV news network. The Halloween Candy Give Back Program has been connecting communities with their military, veteran, and first responder heroes each fall since 2007. Volunteers from all 50 states and Washington D.C. share a portion of their excess Halloween candy with Operation Gratitude. We then assist in distributing the candy to deployed troops, local military units, veterans, and first responders, providing a sweet opportunity for grateful Americans to thank those who serve our nation. Last year Operation Gratitude delivered more than 93,000 pounds of candy in thousands of care packages to military & first responders and raised more than $17,800. The nonprofit mobilizes the support of dedicated volunteers across the nation and distributes the candy to America’s heroes in signature Operation Gratitude Care Packages and through local deliveries to first responders and veterans around the country.
