Operation Gratitude’s 12 Days of Gratitude Inspires Giving Back Nationwide This Holiday Season

Join Operation Gratitude’s 12 Days of Gratitude (Dec 3-14) to honor Deployed Troops, Veterans, and First Responders through impactful acts of appreciation.

LOS ANGELES , CA, UNITED STATES, December 3, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- This holiday season, communities across the nation are coming together to honor and support the brave men and women who serve our country through Operation Gratitude’s 12 Days of Gratitude. Running from December 3rd to December 14th, this annual campaign offers Americans the opportunity to take part in meaningful acts of appreciation for Deployed Troops, Veterans, and First Responders.

“Gratitude is at the heart of everything we do at Operation Gratitude,” said Meg Barron, Executive Director of Operation Gratitude. “The 12 Days of Gratitude gives people across the nation an opportunity to take action and show our heroes that their service and sacrifices are deeply appreciated—especially during this time of year, when many Deployed Troops are far from their families. It’s inspiring to see communities unite to make a meaningful impact, whether by uplifting those who protect and serve in their own communities or by showing appreciation for service members deployed far from home.”

Through simple yet impactful actions like writing heartfelt letters, donating items, or sponsoring Care Packages, participants in the 12 Days of Gratitude ensure that service members and First Responders feel supported and valued during the holiday season. Each Care Package delivered includes thoughtful items, creative handmade additions, and personal messages of appreciation, serving as tangible reminders of the nation’s gratitude.

Highlighting Gratitude in Action
These are just some of the ways you can give back during Operation Gratitude’s 12 Days of Gratitude:
Write Letters of Gratitude: Send heartfelt messages to Deployed Troops, First Responders, Veterans, or Recruit Graduates. Your words can provide encouragement and remind these heroes they are deeply appreciated.
Donate Beanie Babies: Give your once-loved Beanie Babies or small plush toys a new purpose by including them in Care Packages. These cherished items bring smiles to recipients worldwide.
Shop the Amazon Wishlist: Purchase items from Operation Gratitude’s Amazon Wishlist to help fill Care Packages with essentials and thoughtful touches for those who serve.
Sponsor a Care Package: For just $25, sponsor the shipment of a Care Package in honor of someone special. Donors will receive a holiday-themed certificate to print and gift, making this a heartfelt way to spread gratitude while celebrating the season of giving.
