Operation: Veteran Smiles is grateful to Harbor Homes of Wisconsin and Halen Homes for their continued dedication to our Veterans and for partnering with OVS on their recent packing & delivery day to the VA Hospital.

We are so thankful for their hard work and we know that the Veterans were thrilled to receive their care packages and cards.

Please remember that this 4th of July & the celebration of the birth of our great nation, was made possible because great men sacrificed for our freedoms.

OVS would like to send out a HUGE thank you to UScellular for their continued support of our U.S. Veterans.

Volunteers from their Chicago location came together last week to pack more than 250 care packages, which included hand written notes of encouragement for the Veterans at the Hines VA Hospital.

We are grateful for U.S. Cellular's Denise Lintz (VP) and Laurent “LT” Therivel (CEO) and their AMAZING team!

OVS would not be here without the support of this outstanding organization and we are beyond thankful for their Volunteers that continue to partner with us in helping some of our most vulnerable Veterans.

OVS resumed full-fledged deliveries to the Carl Vinson VA Hospital today. We look forward to the day when we can resume hand delivering and visiting our Veterans there, but in the mean time we are working to get much needed hygiene items to our Veterans who have been quarantine for over a year.
Please continue to keep them in your thoughts and prayers.

Our CEO/Fearless Leader graduated from College yesterday.

When the dust settled we said:
"Now that you've been named the Valedictorian of the 2021 Class for Helms College, what are you going to do?!"
And she said: "I'm going to organize OVS headquarters and get the ball rolling for our 2021 deliveries".

Today we did just that.

OVS delivery efforts were halted in 2020 due to COVID, BUT today renewed our efforts to meet the needs of our hospital bound Veterans.
We organized our headquarters and packed almost 300 bags for 3 VA facilities in the Southeast.
Today has been a good day!

Please give a shout out to our CEO Amelia Day.
We are proud of her work as a student and leader of OVS, and we are excited to see where she leads us in the days ahead.

Like everyone else around the globe, 2020 threw OVS many curve balls that we had to learn to adapt to.
We are looking forward to adapting, improvising and overcoming in 2021 so that we can continue to serve our disabled Veterans in VA Hospitals across the U.S.!
We are grateful for another year of support from UScellular!
We ask that you join us in our renewed mission to meet the needs of our most vulnerable Veterans and help to bring smiles to their faces across the country!
