Operation Santa USMC 2007

1/7 Marines with Operation Santa stockings in 2004

Yes, it's July. It's not too early, though, to start thinking about Christmas for our troops who will be deployed over the holidays. In the past 3 years, we've sent around 35,000 filled Christmas stockings to Marines, Soldiers, and other troops who are deployed in Iraq and Afghanistan. This year, our goal is 25,000 and we'll make it with the help of volunteers like you.

The photo above is from 2004 when we started Operation Santa with the idea of sending 42 stocking for Marines in my son's platoon. It grew with the help of some amazing people throughout the country and we sent 6,000 stockings that first year. 1/7 deploys again in August, along with thousands of other Marines. We'll make their Christmas merrier this year too - as well as quite a few Army and National Guard units who are also deployed.

For more information on how you can become involved in this years effort, check out our Operation Santa page. We need you to make this happen.
