Saturday, December 10, 2022, 11:00 am – 2:00 pm

Many military families are separated during the holidays due to deployments and others travel long distances to be together.
Jillann Ivan, Area Manager, Operation Homefront, stated “We will provide 150 families with a Holiday Meal Kit that includes all the traditional food items along with a voucher for a turkey from H-E-B.  This allows families to celebrate the holiday together, in their homes, with their families. 

Families that are eligible: Post 9/11 wounded, ill, or injured service member of any rank, both currently serving and those no longer serving in the military, or All Ranks, Active Duty, Guard and Reserves, any duty status.”

Holiday Meals for Military is Operation Homefront’s way of saying thank you for your service and sacrifices that you have made for our country!
