Recognized for superior performance by leading independent charity oversight groups, 90 percent of Operation Homefront expenditures go directly to programs that support tens of thousands of military families each year. ZIPS is honored to serve those who have served," he added.Ībout Operation Homefront Founded in 2002, Operation Homefront is a national nonprofit organization whose mission is to build strong, stable, and secure military families so that they can thrive – not simply struggle to get by – in the communities they have worked so hard to protect. "While ZIPS has always implemented military support into our operations, in 2021, we've focused on encompassing the entire veteran, first responder and military family communities with focused outreach programs. "We're excited to kick off ZIPS new military program with this Operation Homefront partnership and feel it's one way of honoring the sacrifices that are made 365-days a year by military men and women and their families," said Gene Dinkens, CEO, ZIPS Car Wash. To date, Operation Homefront has fulfilled more than 48,000 requests for assistance totaling more than $32 million. "This Veterans Day, we are proud to join ZIPS Car Wash to provide Americans with a tangible way to show our gratitude to our military and veteran families for their dedicated service."įor nearly 20 years, Operation Homefront has provided programs that offer relief (through Critical Financial Assistance and transitional housing programs), resiliency (through permanent housing and caregiver support services) and recurring family support programs and services throughout the year. "Our military families have earned our utmost respect for all that they have done for all of us," said Jill Eskin-Smith, Vice President of Corporate and Foundation Partnerships.
