Operation Courage Is Beautiful is the nation's first and only ongoing non-profit care package program supporting women in the military. Women make up over 16% of the US Armed Forces, yet they are often forgotten or overlooked by military support organizations.
With the help of people like you, Operation Courage is Beautiful collects in-kind donations (goods) and monetary donations to create and ship high-quality care packages made of female-oriented personal care products, reading materials and more for service members deployed across the globe. Requests for these care packages are made by the service member herself, a colleague, friend or family member via our online request form. Discover the ways you can help!
Thank you!!
