Operation at Ease Support

Patriotic Bow Campaign

The financial resources to support Operation at Ease come from dedicated members of the Patriotic Bow Campaign and the generosity of the St. James residents.  Annually, the Bow Committee currently lead by Vickie Johnson and Cindi Neumann, with numerous neighborhood coordinators, sells bows with a small American Flag which hang on mailboxes from Memorial Day to Independence Day.


Picture
Sales of the bows and additional donations exceed $20,000 annually to support the 2021 Operation at Ease.  With the current cost roughly $500 per family per weekend, up to 40 families can be hosted each year.

Footnote:  With 2021 Operation at Ease not held, and the funds from 2020 Bow Campaign still be available for 2022, the OAE Board donated the proceeds from 2021 to the Fisher Houses at Camp Le Jeune and Ft. Bragg.
