Operation Homefront's Critical Financial Assistance program helps military families address critical financial shortfalls. Most often, this means assistance with rent, utilities, and groceries. Since the program began in 2011, we have fulfilled more than 46,000 requests and provided over $30 million in assistance.
Part of the American dream has always been owning a home. Operation Homefront's Permanent Homes for Veterans (PHV) program prepares veterans and their families for home ownership by providing a mortgage-free home and the opportunity to work directly with OH caseworkers and financial counselors. Since 2012, OH has deeded over 600 homes to military families (PHV).
Additionally, Operation Homefront's Transitional Housing ("Villages") provides rent-free, furnished apartments to wounded, ill, and injured warriors and their families where they can live together while transitioning to civilian life. The Villages are designed to enable families to heal together, while bridging what can be a lengthy gap between military pay ending and veteran benefits beginning, or when veterans' disability claims are reviewed and received. Since 2008, OH has defrayed nearly $6.8 million in rent and utility costs to military families.
Operation Homefront's Back-to-School Brigade provides military children with backpacks filled with donated school supplies, helping to relieve families of this cost and enabling them to use their income for other household expenses. Since 2008, OH has provided over 425,000 backpacks to military children.
Operation Homefront's Holiday Meals for Military program helps military families celebrate the holidays by providing them with healthy fixings for a traditional holiday meal. Since 2010, we have provided free meal packages to nearly 540,000 military family members.
