I am a 40% disabled veteran (pending 60%) and i have a occupational impairment. I had been having money issues and my disability check had not been cutting it. OH paid my rent and the past due and gave me $100 for food assistance that I did not request. I recommend them to ANYONE in a bad situation.

I am a disabled 2X OEF wounded warrior who served in the U.S. Army for 6 years. My wife and I had just recently relocated for work with our 11 month old son, when we found out we were expecting our second edition to our family. With both of us working four jobs between the two of us, learning how to be parents, and dealing with some of my medical issues, we were completely lost when our primary vehicle broke down on the side of the road. We looked into several different financial assistance programs and started to consider selling some of our furniture when we reached out to Operation Homefront. My first impression was very positive, just from a client service perspective. Once we were finished with our application process, we were assigned our case manager Will. He was incredibly helpful and supportive to circumstances and made sure that we felt confident that help was on the way. Not only did Will and his team at Operation Homefront assist with vehicle repair, but they also send us a gift card. Thank you Operation Homefront, Thank you Will and his team, and thank you all the supporters of such a worthy cause. My family is very grateful and will always remember your kindness.

my husband was injured in OEF, OIF in 2008 & again in 2010 on his knee. Well Jan. 15th 2013 our 3rd son had surgery on his skull at the age of 3 months! so we have been trying to catch up on other bills. Operation Homefront helped us pay some of our bills. they are by far the best none profit company to help military families of injured soldiers! Thank You Operation Homefront!!

I am a disabled Iraq War Veteran. I received assistance from Operation Home Front, that prevented my house from being foreclosed. They also assisted me in auto repairs I desperately needed because I only have 1 vehicle to get around in. I am glad there are organizations out there like this to help Veterans. Thanks to everyone at Operation Home Front and God Bless each of you!

Personally, I have not had much dealing with this org., however, I know many Wounded Service Members that have greatly benefited. Many of my friends and their families were given rent free apartments while they went through medical treatment and transition either back to Active Duty or Medical Retirement. Not only does this help the family in transition financially, but also gives them a chance to live off base, in a safe environment. That otherwise may have been unaffordable.
(note: If you did not know, base housing is rather poor. Living off base is preferable.)

My husband is a combat disabled veteran who was injured by the enemy in 2007 while in Iraq. Operation Homefront and their donors have tremendously blessed our family with much needed home repairs. Thank you Operation Homefront and thank you to those who have donated to this wonderful organization. They are making a difference in the lives of our combat veterans and their family members.

I'm a combat wounded warrior that has suffered from retaliation and harassment by senior leadership at DIA, AFRC, and AFDW with no consideration of the extent of trauma I've endured despite formal medical notification of the care I was under at WRNMMC-Bethesda. I know there are countless other wounded warriors that are bullied, even to the point of suicide, by leaders otherwise trained to "take care of their people." We're betrayed by the superficial effort of the Military Services despite a requirement from Congress for DoD to be proactive and address serious concerns and suicide rates. After I retired, callous bureaucrats went out of their way in an effort to deny me employment even after I was hand-picked for specific qualifications. My family had to endure financial hardship and the progress I made in treatment suffered a set back. I followed numerous leads and made hundreds of calls for support but only one organization actually took concrete measures to help lift me from the pain of neglect I experienced. That was Operation Homefront, who continued to think outside the box and look for creative ways to help my family. I will forever be grateful to them and refer other wounded warriors to it as a first option. There are many non-profit organizations that will simply refer you elsewhere and consider that as help but Operation Homefront is the one that took direct action to help me.

My husband and I recently had a son that was born with a very sever neurological disorder so we had to move into EFMP housing that is wheelchair accessible. We were only given a weeks notice that housing was available so we had little time to plan or save up for moving. My husband was injured 1.5 yrs ago and has had 3 knee surgeries since then so he was not able to help. Within 5 days OH had our moved approved and paid for. They made the whole situation a lot less stressful. I am very thankful to have received their help!

When I was in Afghanistan I always tried to name someone my "hero of the day." I began to realize just how important the every day jobs are that everyone of us do (helicopter repair personnel, medics, etc.), so I wanted to be sure that these individuals were recognized. While at FT Drum I worked in the Family Life Center which was located in the Po Valley Chapel. Because our budget needed to go to more important things, we didn't have money to buy coins. I would make coins out of cardboard and "print them up" as the "Po Boy Coin of Excellence." Lisa & Operation Homefront are my Heros of the day and get an honorary Po Boy Coin of Excellence.
I've enjoyed my 33 years of service to this country. The past 8 years on Active Duty were rewarding, but at a great expense to myself and my family. Mobilized Reserve Soldiers are still fighting to be recognized and cared for at an equal rate as their active component peers. There is equal sacrifice, but unfortunately the compensation is not always equal. I'm still fighting for the medical care that I am authorized as well as for thousands of dollars of storage expenses that resulted from closing two offices (both mine & my wife's) so that I could be mobilized and shipped around the world. Your help at this time shines a light of hope into our lives as we continue to press on in the midst of struggles.
Thank you for all that you have done. Continue to take pride in serving this great Country. We have the best military services in the world!
