Operation USA's initial and immediate response to the California wildfires included donations of 10,000 N-95 Masks (disposable particulate respirators) to the Los Angeles Sheriff's Department and 10,000 N-95 Masks, 960 pairs of heavy leather work gloves and 1000 pairs of safety goggles to be distributed to migrant farm workers throughout the heavily affected San Diego county.
Operation USA is continuing to assess additional needs in rural areas where the basic infrastructure of electricity, water and farmland has been heavily damaged and where recovery will take a substantial amount of time. We work through local nonprofit organizations in the affected counties.
Your contributions are still needed. Donations can be made by credit card by calling (800) 678-7255 or by going online at www.opusa.org and specifying that your donation is for the victims of the California wildfires.
If companies would like to donate bulk quantities of appropriate relief supplies, contact Neil Frame at 800-678-7255 or by e-mail at nframe@opusa.org.
For the past 27 years we?ve prided ourselves in strictly adhering to several operating principles which, taken together and despite our small size, have gained Operation USA international recognition as one of the world?s most cutting edge relief and development organizations.
Foremost among these principles and despite our organizational name, Operation USA accepts no US Government funding of any kind. We have avoided becoming a US Government contractor unlike many of the major international relief agencies whose growth is largely dependent on such funding. Underpinning this is our belief that ?Private Means Private?, and so we rely instead on the generosity of the American people and on their private institutions to support our work.
Operation USA has experienced that, instantaneously, a family, community and entire nation can be devastated and be faced with unprecedented challenges. To mitigate the immediate effects of such tragedies, Operation USA rapidly and expertly provides on-the-ground aid by sending vital life-saving supplies and cash grants to assist communities in rebuilding. Partnering with grassroots organizations, Operation USA specializes in reaching vulnerable populations who are in the greatest need, yet who are often ignored by governments and larger aid organizations.
Rapid Relief - When an emergency strikes, Operation USA is often one of the first professional responders, on the ground with medical supplies, water, purification equipment, shelter materials and trauma teams.
Recovery & Rebuilding - As the emergency phase slowly lessens, Operation USA makes grants to local organizations to help them build their capacity to meet their communities' basic needs.
Long-Term Development - Years after a disaster has abated, communities are still frequently in need of assistance. Responding to a continuing need, Operation USA makes grants to partner organizations for sustainable community-based projects.
