Pick up Your Pen and Say “Thanks” to the Troops!

With Veterans Day only a few days away, now is the perfect time to say “Thank You” to our service members — past and present!

THANK YOU for your service…

THANK YOU for being brave…

THANK YOU for volunteering to do this important job…

THANK YOU!

Our friends at BIC Pen Pals are joining us in this effort. Please visit their Facebook page and tell them you’re glad they are helping to support the troops. Then take a few moments and write a letter or two for our care packages.  Send them to:

Operation Gratitude
Attn: BIC Letter Writing Campaign
17330 Victory Boulevard
Van Nuys, CA 91406

Find more information and details about Operation Gratitude’s “Letters to Heroes” Program here. And be sure to check out the Mail Call section of the website to read the wonderful email and letters we receive back from the troops!

About Operation Gratitude

Operation Gratitude annually sends 100,000 care packages filled with snacks, toiletries, entertainment items and personal letters of appreciation addressed to individually named U.S. Service Members deployed in harm's way, to their Children left behind, and to Veterans, Wounded Warriors and First responders. Our mission is to lift morale, bring a smile to a service member's face and express to our our Military and their families the appreciation and support of the American people. Operation Gratitude receives the names of Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen and Marines from commanders in the field who see the positive impact of care packages on their troops' morale. Each package contains donated product valued at $75-100 and costs the organization $15 to assemble and ship. For safety and security, assembling of packages occurs at the Army National Guard armory in Van Nuys, California. Since its inception in 2003, Operation Gratitude has shipped more than 900,000 packages to American Military and their families.
