Our unique programs allow caring Americans to donate their time, talent, and treasure to honor those serving our country, veterans and their families.

Programs

OCC is requesting funds to support one of our three programs- OCC Adopt a Military Family-our fastest growing program. Every year, thousands of military, veteran, and Gold Star families receive support from OCC. 

This support includes:

• Care packages for hospitalized vets and those living in vet homes, transition centers, and homeless vets
• Support of military unit family events
• Emergency aid
