October 27 is Navy Day. The first Navy Day was celebrated in 1922. The date was chosen to honor Theodore Roosevelt’s birthday, a tribute to one of the Navy’s strongest champions. Decades later, historians traced the Navy’s official birthday to October 13, 1775, but many still mark today as Navy Day.

More than 45,000 sailors served on Battleship New Jersey across four commissions. Today we honor them, and sailors, past and present.

25 years of service and never did we think after 9/11 we would still be here so many years later or have our national
headquarters now in vibrant Westfield, New Jersey.

Wherever we were stationed, we kept the charity going to unite across differences and keep volunteering in thousands of ways alive and well with our children, tweens and teens and college students. Then everyone wanted to help and anyone can no matter what your challenges or where you live - you are needed.

Email us anytime at [email protected]

You can even start a Homefront Hugs Service Club at your schools - we have them nationwide!

Right now we truly need your help as we are needed more than ever to combat suicides, help our heroes and families hurting, and to keep our award winning volunteer program going strong with students giving back in countless ways in thanks for their freedoms.

Please consider at least $25 to help us celebrate our 25th anniversary and if possible make it a monthly donation.

We apologize but we have no blankets or gifts to give you in return for donations to our charity but 100% of your gift will be used for our missions!

No one receives any compensation as that is our donation and we are so grateful for all our supporters, and volunteers young and old!

💙Thank you. We leave the politics at the door and unite to make differences in our communities, for our heroes and 1st responders, and to remember Freedom Endures.
