Operation Once in a Lifetime Programs in Abilene, TX, is dedicated to fulfilling the dreams of U.S. soldiers, veterans, and their families through compassionate financial and morale support. Our mission is to provide a range of essential services and unforgettable experiences including Operation Welcome Home, which offers returning soldiers vital household essentials; Operation Reconnect, which provides computers to maintain family connections; and Operation Care Packages, delivering a touch of home to deployed troops.

Our Soldier Outdoor Initiative offers healing outdoor activities for severely combat-wounded veterans, while Operation Forgotten Veterans addresses the pressing needs of homeless veterans including toiletries, housing, and more. Through Operation Full Support, we ensure assistance with essential bills like rent and utilities, and our Toys For Troops program brings joy to military families during the holidays. At Operation Once in a Lifetime, we believe that every service member deserves recognition and support, championing the idea that if you serve, you qualify for our help.
