Volunteer for Operation Rack Pack
Operation Help a Hero volunteers are celebrating 22 years of serving Camp Pendleton in the fall of '23. We just had the 20th anniversary of our first full battalion Operation Rack Pack (then called "Operation Welcome Home") in May '23.
We are as appreciative of every volunteer and donation today as we were when this all started.
Once a grassroots effort started by mil spouses (many still at it today) and parents who wanted their Marines to return to a sense of home in the barracks, ORP turned into a project that has now served well over 150,000 returning Marines, Sailors, Airmen, and Soldiers at multiple bases.
This is only possible because of VOLUNTEERS like you, and we hope you'll join as we continue this legacy.
