Operation AC offers the premier method for Americans to adopt US Military Service Members online in realtime, shop for their needs in the Virtual CareBox, Operation AC staff packs and ships everything for you and your service member gets their Virtual CareBox from us expedited. ALL purchases for your adopted service member are 100% tax deduction eligible. Operation AC is a non-profit 501(c) charity.
With this said, please note that Operation AC is a non-profit charity which operates off of your donations. For every $1 you donate, please note that 93% of that dollar goes directly to the troops. The rest of it goes to the US Postal Service for boxes and supplies to pack and ship and to pay Michael who works for us to pack and ship 5 days a week, all year long. We own the truck so it is gas in that also. So we don't use any fancy marketing people, we keep overhead very low. We do much of the work ourselves and with the great many of volunteers who keep us going.
Please consider giving to us, we put all of your dollars together in 1 pot and we spend that money on our troops, where it belongs. If you are interested in the numbers, there is a section on our website which shows the breakdown of what we spend the donations on. Our IRS 990 is public record and can be found on many of the websites which provide that service. Our Tax ID is 02-0699201. I do not pay guidestar.org as I think that is silly to have them "rate& us. I assure you there are no fat salaries around here and we keep our noses to the grindstone appropriately. I am proud of what we have been able to do thanks to all of you who give. We do what we do together, there is no &I& in Team.
Thank you to everyone who helps us continue. God Bless you and God Bless our men and women in uniform who serve our great nation.
The bottom line here is that we need you to keep going. Remember, our troops are someone else's Son, Dad, Husband, Daughter, Mom, Sister, Wife and most of all, they are our Americans as long as they are away from home, we support them, period.
Sincerely,OperationWoundedSoldiers.org was designed with one specific goal in mind.... To fill the needs of our wounded soldiers, one at a time. To help heal a heart, a body or a mind. We MUST make sure our wounded soldiers, our Brothers and Sisters, Mom's & Dad's Friends and Lovers, know how much we love and support them... As they supported us in OUR time of need. To show our appreciation for the sacrifices they have made, and have asked nothing in return. They have given to keep OUR families, YOURS AND MINE, SAFE AND FREE.

"Our dreams of making sure that no Veteran be left standing at Mail Call with empty hands nor an empty heart is finally becoming a reality. It truly amazes us at the compassion of 'Angels' from all over the World, including Australia who have joined our Organization by ~ Adopting a Veteran ~. It takes someone truly special to dedicate themselves to weekly letters/cards and monthly 'forget-me-nots' without expecting anything in return. It touches our heart just as much to see our Active Military participating as well..."
Guide Dogs for the Blind is a nonprofit, charitable organization with a mission to provide Guide Dogs and training in their use to visually impaired people throughout the United States and Canada. I received this email for a "puppy raiser" with this organization just this morning: "I have been on another web page and found out that some of our troops are coming home blinded. This family had no clue on where they can get this hero a guide dog. I wanted to let you know about a place that I have been volunteering for the last 8 yrs. I am a guide dog puppy raiser. This place gives the dogs to the blind hero FREE. here is the web page so you can pass it on. www.guidedogs.com God Bless our Troops Mary"
