Our Holiday Thank You

On Friday, December 18th, we held our annual Operation Adopt/Thank You presentation for service members and their families.  This is our favorite day of the year! 

We gave presents and all the fixings for a big holiday meal to more than 40 families from 3d SFG(A), 7th SFG(A), and 1-508th PIR.

We set out the presents above (and more), along with all the food items, so everyone could quickly and easily gather their goodies and get home to start their holiday vacation.

We had several soldiers and Foundation volunteers, including Sheryl Harriman (Steve's wife, pictured above) and Shelia Harriman (Stan's widow), helping to set out the gifts and prepare all the food.  

Stan's son, Christopher, helps Steve fill the bags, while Emily Holliday prepares the food for packaging.

Pictured below are Steve, Christopher and Father Christmas, passing out Thank You cards with gift cards for all the parents.

Check back soon for more photos of this great day.

Happy Holidays from All of Us at The Stan the Man Foundation!

Operation Adopt

We love this time of year!  From now until mid-December, we will organize and shop for Operation Adopt.  This is our one chance each year to really connect with and say thank you to our military families! 

Every year, during the holidays, the Foundation "adopts" as many military families as possible.  This is an extra special way for us to support families who have faced medical or financial crisis during the year, and say a special thank you for their service.   

We have increased the number of families we support each year, and hope to continue that trend this year with your help!  Please click this link, Download Operation_Adopt_Letter, to read more about Operation Adopt and how you can help brighten the holiday season for many military families!

Sincerely,

The "Stan the Man" Foundation
