OFR has served over 25,419 Families of our Wounded Heroes, Disabled Veterans and First Responders Nationwide with Emergency Financial Needs since 2004.
Our Commitment
The mission of Operation First Response, Inc (OFR) is to serve all branches of our nation’s Wounded Heroes/Disabled Veterans, Gold Star Families and First Responders with personal and financial needs. Services are provided from the onset of injuries or illness, throughout their recovery period and along their journey into the civilian world. Financial aid varies as each case is based on individual needs ranging from rent, utilities, vehicle payments, groceries, clothing, and travel expenses.
Operation First Response is a vehicle for a proud America.
We could not serve our wounded Heroes and their families without your support. Donating to our organization ensures that our Heroes get the help they need and deserve in troubling times upon their return home.

We Need Your Help To Continue Serving America’s Finest As They Recover From the COVID-19 Pandemic.
It is in times of crisis that Americans come together and support each other. As we begin to recover from the affects of COVID-19, we can safely assume many agencies and programs will need support in the coming months.
While the medical component is of great concern, we at Operation First Response are focused on the non-medical side, the impact of not having income due to lost wages. We know that people who perhaps have never needed services in the past will suddenly be at the point of need. OFR will be providing essential assistance such as food, mortgages and rent, utilities, vehicle repairs and other basic needs.
We could not do this without you. 2020 was a difficult year as all of our fundraising events were canceled due to COVID-19 and in 2021 we adapted to a ‘new normal’ but events were limited and as a result, fundraising was again difficult. We and those we serve, sincerely appreciate your generosity during this unprecedented time.
We are reaching out to our donors and partners so we can keep our communities strong. We believe now more than ever that it is crucial for all types of funding to be able to give the needed assistance and aid to our Active Duty Service Members, Disabled Veterans, their families and our First Responders.
We will not be able to support these families in crisis without your support now!
Together, we are stronger!
From our team to each of you, we thank you!
