Operation Finance Cares
(OFC) is a project developed by the United States Army Finance Command
(USAFINCOM) to show support to deployed Finance soldiers. Soldiers deployed
away from home, especially during the holiday season, often feel lonely. The
emphasis of OFC is to boost the morale of our soldiers and show them that
Finance takes care of their own. The goal is to provide an opportunity for
individuals in the Finance community and external organizations (i.e., schools
and churches) to sponsor a soldier(s) by mailing letters and/or cards.
In previous years, troops from the girl and boy scouts, several churches,
and many schools have expressed their appreciation of soldiers by participating
in the program. Suggested items: juice boxes (Hi-C, Minute Maid, Hawaiian
Punch, Capri Sun); store bought, individually wrapped cookies, chips, crackers;
canned snacks; non-refrigerated (fruit cups, vienna sausages, pudding, jello);
fruit roll-ups, granola bars, pop-tarts; magazines; paperback books; crossword
puzzle books; word search books; nerf balls, super balls or other light-weight
fun "toys"; playing cards; travel size games; travel size toiletry
items; holiday decorations (small trees, unbreakable items); New Year's Eve
party items (hats,
horns, noisemakers). Anyone wishing to sponsor a soldier(s) or unit are to
contact Richard Worthy at richard.worthy@dfas.mil
or reworthy@aol.com.
