Operation First Response

Serving wounded heroes and their families

As proud Americans, Wayne and I feel it is our duty to honor those members of the U.S. Armed Forces who have fought bravely to protect our freedom. This year we introduce the "Military Kissing Fish," a tribute to all branches of service.

For each "Military Kissing Fish" sold, Katherine's Collection will donate $1.00 to Operation First Response, an organization responsible for bringing much-needed relief to our wounded heroes and their families.

Through the efforts of Operation First Response, our wounded service members and their families receive financial assistance, air and ground transportation, as well as the emotional support of OFR's completely volunteer-based staff.

OFR also sends backflips filled with personal care items to combat support hospitals in theatre, where our soldiers would be otherwise left without personal gear after being evacuated from the battlefield.

Our hope is that you will feel inspired to further the efforts of this organization by displaying a plaque provided by Katherine's Collection in your store.
