Operation Not Alone supports veterans and active-duty service members through Cheer Packages, personalized Care Packages, veteran outreach and community service programs. Our goal is to make sure those who served know they are remembered, appreciated and never alone.

Veterans from any branch of the United States Armed Forces may be nominated for an Operation Not Alone Cheer Package. The veteran does not need to be a family member—you may nominate a friend, neighbor, coworker or other veteran in your community.

Our Care Package program supports active-duty service members stationed away from home. You may submit a family member, friend or other active-duty service member you know.
