Operation Kid Comfort
Operation Kid Comfort provides support for children of military families, who have a parent that is deployed. Operation Kid Comfort will provide military children with a quilt or pillow that is made out of pictures of both the child and his/her deployed parent. It is our hope that with our help, each child will feel closer to his/her parent while they are so many miles away.
We are proud to partner with the Armed Services YMCA to offer membership and respite child care services to eligible military families and personnel.
This initiative addresses the needs of the families of deployed military personnel and their families.
Children are able to stay connected to their deployed parents through videotapes of the parent reading their child's favorite books.
