MarkTwain (marc watkins and bro Mike) donated some great sticks to the troops. The box arrived yesterday. Thanks Marc! Boxes leave the midwest operations here next week!
your 30+ box of cigars arrived for the troops. I am not sure what board you are from yet. Nothing to indicate in the box or out. Thanks for the donation!
7 MAJOR boxes to units left midwest this week. We are attendeing a Church event next week with 50 local families that will be packing and donating personal contents and boxes to leave next week (i will add cigars to their boxes ).
I suspect at least this many more leaving next week for the fine units on the OpFTH active shipment list.
EVERY unit on the list will get something this Christmas from OpFTH!
Thanks to all that have donated time or efforts to this cause during the season.
All the details can be found on our website www.opfth.com in the forums UNITS sections.
All donations to the Troops can be sent to us at our main location now:

Thanks to all that have supported us this year. We are well over 1300 lbs of goods shipped to the troops this year already.
15 boxes just left Midwest office totaling 331 lbs to 15 targets in Iraq. This is only part of a shipment we are organizating with a local church group that host us in a "Support our troops" program here.
at least 15 more boxes and more goodies to leave later today or next week when we transport them to the post office .
17 more boxes left OpFTH Midwest today to add another 471 lbs of goods shipped to the troops. This makes the december totals 802 lbs and $488 in shipping.
Most of the bulk of this came from a local presentation and program I attended at a church that had the families bring donations of goods and wrote letters and and drew pictures and then packed boxes up.
It was a great honor to be included and chance to get the OpFTH information out.
A special thanks for all the support and donations this year. This has been a great year for Operation from the Heart!
We have shipped over 2000 lbs directly to the Troops this year (2147 lbs). 100% of that is donations by some great people and organizations.
This year we expanded and included a new “Agents” program which allowed us to reach out to more communities and open our doors to more and more people. I am Thankful for those agents that have joined us this year and we are blessed to have some really great people involved with us.
Our website is becoming more active and our forums are starting to pick up more. All of our donations are acknowledged there and every shipment is documented there with details of who it was shipped to and when. So if you donated anything you should have a personal thank you on the “recognition” threads.
We plan on expanding and updating our logo this year and website. We will also be offering direct sales of “OpFTH Gear” (t-shirts and hats etc) soon as “Promotional items”. You can still buy our stuff on café’ press if you want to show your support and get us some exposure in the mean time.
We have started to expand our grasp to local schools and churches around us and have spoke at “Support our Troops” events. It has opened up our organization to more then the cigar communities that we started out with and is a huge step for us. We have had mentions in local news papers, radio shows and other website now. Feel free to promote us on your other forums and websites (myspace). We have a myspace account now with great tributes and photos too. Check it out at www.myspace.com/opfth
Thank you all for your support in 2006!
Please continue your generosity in 2007. We need it more then ever now.
