Operation Love from Home
We are a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit dedicated to coordinating and providing support to individuals and families in need in the community.
Founded by George and Nichole Raftopoulos and led by local business and community leaders, we coordinate and contribute resources to charitable organizations and operations providing solutions for it’s well-being of our community.
OLFH was founded by the desire to show gratitude for our deployed troops and their respective families at home. We started a grassroots campaign by gathering the support of our community to collect various personal goods, yummy snack foods, Valentines Day cards from our local various school children, etc., and sent these care packages abroad. Once Covid happened, we recognized the increase in food insecurity in our communities and evolved OPLF into the organization it is today: supporting local veterans, their families, and neighbors in need. By serving as a bridge between donors and local organizations, OPLH supports food pantries, shelters, animal rescue organization among others, promoting human dignity (with our beloved pets) and making a tangible difference.
We are a registered 501(c)(3) connecting donors, businesses and others seeking ways to give back and support individuals, families and animals in need in the community. 100% of all donations collected are passed through to our supported groups.
