Operation Help a Hero is a 501 (c) (3) public charity (Federal Tax ID 27-1438256) dedicated to the well-being and care of our American military members. Our programs support military units and families as they prepare for separation, while they endure the challenges of deployment, and as they transition back to the United States. Our projects uplift our military heroes and send a clear message of support to their entire family. Operation Help a Hero connects communities with service members and provides real opportunities to make a difference in the lives of those who serve our country. We are an all volunteer organization. All board members and directors volunteer their time to focus all donations on our projects and the military heroes they serve. Thanks to t-shirt sales and Board of Director member efforts focused on operating costs, every cent contributed to Operation Help a Hero is used to serve our military community, and every project is based on real needs.
