Join Us in Bringing Joy and Support to Our Military and First Responders Year-Round

What does Santa do during the off-season? He delivers Care Packages to our nation’s Military, First Responders, and Veterans! This July, Operation Gratitude invites you to join our “Summer Santa for Those Who Serve” campaign. By raising awareness and funds, we can ensure that our heroes feel appreciated and remembered throughout the year.

Why “Summer Santa” Matters:

The need for gratitude and support knows no season. With over 200,000 U.S. troops deployed around the world, along with countless First Responders serving our local communities, these heroes sacrifice so much for our safety and freedom. By becoming a “Summer Santa,” you help us deliver smiles, comfort, and appreciation to those who serve.

How You Can Help:

There are many ways to get involved and become a “Summer Santa”:

Donate: Your contributions help us fund the Care Packages that bring comfort and joy to our heroes. [Insert Donation Link]
