Operation Care is a non-profit, non-denominational, private charitable organization comprised of military and civilian volunteers dedicated to the welfare of the people of Afghanistan and, especially, to the children. Based at Bagram Airfield, Afghanistan, Operation Care accepts donations of basic necessities including school supplies, shoes, clothing, blankets, hygene items, nutritional supplements and similar items from a multitude of sources, and distributes humanitarian aid throughout the Afghanistan theater of operations where it is most needed. In addition, Operation Care supports US and Coalition Soldiers, Sailors, Marines and Airmen stationed at forward operating bases in remote areas by providing them with personal hygene, comfort items, and other basic amenities which cannot be readily obtained in such isolated locations. With the generous support of the American people, Operation Care works to ensure the future of a free and democratic Afghanistan, and to provide a secure, peaceful, and nurturing environment for its children.
