Operation Kids and New Orleans Outreach have teamed together to increase awareness and funding for New Orleans Outreach over a 6-week “Back to School New Orleans” campaign – with your help, we can make a difference in the lives of thousands more school children in one of the public education systems that struggles the most.

Operation Kids is teaming up with New Orleans Outreach, one of the organizations we worked with during the "Operation Kids: Rebuilding Dreams in New Orleans" campaign on a Back to School in New Orleans campaign, set to launch mid-August. The goal of this project is to increase access to New Orleans Outreach programs among students in New Orleans, where there is such a critical need.

In one of the worst economic times in history, thousands of families every day face the struggle of providing medical care for their child – sometimes at a facility a great distance from home.

Inspired by his granddaughter, Haley, who suffers from a rare neurological disorder, Collin is joining with Operation Kids to raise funds for families facing extraordinary medical treatments and expenses for their children.

Operation Kids’ charity partner Ragnar Events will kick off their 2009 racing season by hosting the Ragnar Relay Del Sol race in Arizona on February 27-28.  Nearly 2000 runners participating in 12-person teams will compete in the 200-mile relay race from Prescott to Mesa.  Charitable proceeds will benefit Future for Kids in Arizona.

In conjunction with the release of Richard Paul Evans’ new book, Grace,
Operation Kids and Christmas Box International partnered to raise
awareness and funds to help teens who have aged out of foster care by
providing them with the necessities they need to begin life as adults
on their own.

Ragnar Events sponsored its first-ever race across Florida in November as more than 60 12-person teams ran from Clearwater to Daytona Beach. Charity proceeds from the race went to support youth fitness programs provided by Big Brothers Big Sisters of Florida.
