BOURNE – The Cape Cod Military Support Foundation has announced the return of Operation Backpack to Support Massachusetts Military Families.
The local non-profit has led the annual campaign with a goal of providing backpacks filled with school supplies and distributing them to the children of active duty members of the military, National Guard and Coast Guard.
As part of achieving this ambitious objective, the foundation has partnered with Ocean State Job Lot’s own Charitable Foundation as well as Operation Homefront to procure as many provisions as possible.
To contribute to Cape Cod Military Support Foundation’s 2017 Operation Backpack to Support Massachusetts Military Families visit any one of several donation collection boxes that have been set up across the community.
Donations will be collected through August, after which time the foundation will be in need of volunteers to assist with assembling the backpacks. If you are interested in volunteering to take part, contact the Military Support Foundation at (774) 392-5698.
