Operation Homefront, a nationally recognized 501c3 nonprofit organization, was formed in February 2002 to support the families of deployed service members immediately following 9/11. Since 2002, Operation Homefront has been proudly serving America’s military families. Our organization provides relief and recurring family support programs and services throughout the year to help military families overcome short-term difficulties so they don’t become long-term hardships. Operation Homefront has consistently earned high ratings from leading charity rating services, including Charity Navigator, which gave Operation Homefront 4 Stars for 11 consecutive years for superior service and accountability. At Operation Homefront, 85 percent of expenditures go directly toward delivering programs and services to the military families who need it most.
Our programs are structured under three pillars: Relief, Resiliency and Recurring Family Support. We have steadily increased our numbers served over the years, and now proudly help over 100,000 military family members every year.
Needs vary as we hear from the community- we host them here: https://operationhomefront.org/needs/
MISSION
Build strong, stable, and secure military families so they can thrive in the communities that they've worked so hard to protect.
A key aspect of our mission is to ensure that military families have access to the support and resources they need to stay strong, stable, and secure in the face of adversity. As a military family support organization, we strive to provide respect and understanding to our military families while ensuring that all families in need of assistance receive it.
VISION
To be the provider of choice for short-term and Critical Financial Assistance, long-term stability and recurring support programs to military families.
Critical Financial Assistance for active-duty military members and veterans.
One of our key programs is designed to provide short-term financial help for military families who are experiencing financial hardship. Operation Homefront understands that financial struggles can quickly become chronic challenges if not addressed in a timely manner.
Family Events for military families
Operation Homefront events help military families navigate the unique challenges they face in our communities. Whether handing out school supplies, supporting expectant parents, honoring military children, or giving meals to families, Operation Homefront has many events for service members and their families in North Texas around the United States.
Operation Homefront is committed to promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion as a foundational component of our mission to support our military families. Our core values of Do What’s Right, Gratitude, Perform with Excellence, and Respect Others, reinforce the importance of a diverse workforce and encourage collaboration, dignity, and teamwork. We embrace differences in gender, race, ethnicity, age, sexual orientation, religion, and abilities. Our ongoing commitment to using our core values as practical tools to guide our behaviors assists us in the creation of an inclusive and respectful environment, where all feel they belong, and are valued for their individual contributions to our collective success.
