The chopper was designed specifically to represent the TAPS mission – caring for families of our fallen servicemembers. These families need ongoing emotional help, hope and healing in light of their unique sacrifice, and TAPS is here to provide comfort 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, regardless of their relationship to the deceased, or the circumstances of the death. Each donation will directly support the families of fallen military heroes by helping TAPS provide the best resources for these survivors. TAPS Survivor Seminars and Good Grief camps, our 24/7 survivor hotline and the TAPS peer-to-peer support network are all unique ways in which TAPS cares for these families like no other organization. Donate and Enter Here.
Operation Second Chance, in partnership with Renewal by Andersen of the Washington, DC Capital Area, supports our wounded heroes who have put their lives on the line to protect our freedoms. Together, through the Windows of Opportunity Campaign, financial support is given to wounded service men, women and their families to help pay their rent, fix their cars, modify their homes, and even to feed their families. For more information, visit www.WindowsHelpingHeroes.org and together, we’re helping heroes move on.
