About Us

Operation: Military Matters was started in November 2015, as part of a project for a gifted  class by 9-year-old and fourth grader Graci Tubbs (now 15 and in 9th grade).

After hearing and seeing veterans speak at a school Veterans Day assembly, Graci felt the need to support our military and let the men and women sacrificing their lives for us, know people back home cared about them.

What started out as a school project collecting supplies from the community and sending care packages from home to the military overseas grew into a nonprofit.

In December 2016, Operation: Military Matters became a corporation and on March 16, 2016 became a 501 (c) (3).

Today, Graci speaks to civic organizations and the military to let them know about OMM. Her efforts help raise support and donations to continue sending care packages overseas to our military.

So far they have sent more than 5,500 care packages to our military all around the world and Graci has raised more than $130,000.

Here's a video produced in July 2019, by Fox Sports and it gives you an idea of what Operation: Military Matters is all about.

As our United States military men and women are deployed overseas, we want to make sure they know the people back home support them. As a way to say thank you for serving our country, we send them care packages. If you or someone you know is serving overseas, submit their name below and we will send them a care package.Our care packages are packed with handwritten cards, toiletries, candy, games, socks, wipes and more. Giving them a little bit of home while they are serving.
