Operation Homefront relies heavily on our more than 4,000 volunteers who support our mission and help us deliver our programs.
Their commitment and support is what allows Operation Homefront to make a real and positive difference in the lives of our military families and veterans.

Meet Our 2021 Volunteer of the Year
Sharon is from Texas and has volunteered for OH since 2019. In 2020, wanting to take a more active volunteer role, she became a Team Captain and in 2021 became a Volunteer Administrator support Region 5. Sharon supports eight states between Florida and Texas recruiting volunteers for events, conducting surveys, and assisting with other administrative duties. Additionally, Sharon helps steward relationships with Dollar Tree staff by organizing the pick-up of donated items for Operation Homefront’s Back-to-School Brigade and Holiday Toy Drive programs.
Sharon would like to encourage everyone to consider being a volunteer. “The feeling that you get by volunteering is incredible. They did their service to the country, so we need to do our service to them.” This is how Sharon serves her country – by serving military and veteran families at Operation Homefront events.
Congratulations to Sharon, our Volunteer of the Year!
