2012 Annual Report

2012 Annual Report
Letter from the CEO Our Mission Mission Dear Friends of Operation Homefront: Life in the military means the only constant is change. In 2012, with the end of American combat operations in Iraq and the beginning of the drawdown of U.S. forces in Afghanistan, change for Operation Homefront has been imperative and fundamental. The needs of our military men and women have shifted rapidly, and as an organization we made an affirmative decision to embrace this reality and transform ourselves to meet the needs of the heroes we serve. As you will read in this report, Operation Homefront changed during 2012 in three areas that will allow us to continue serving military families and wounded, ill, and injured service members well into the future. Nationalization: In 2012, our Board of Directors came to the conclusion that Operation Homefront’s chapter structure was no longer the best model to meet our ongoing and post-war challenges. Instead of independently-chartered chapters, Operation Homefront’s local presence in communities across America will now take the form of field offices that are directly managed by our national headquarters. We began the transition with 23 chartered chapters serving families in 27 states. When we complete the transition in June 2013, we will have 22 field offices serving 45 states. So the transition has also been a sizeable expansion. Expansion of Emergency Assistance: As part of our nationalization, all emergency assistance requests are served by a core group of case managers, with almost all having clinical backgrounds in social work or counseling. Additionally, thanks to a partnership with Wounded Warrior Project, Operation Homefront expanded its eligibility criteria for emergency assistance to serve those wounded, ill, and injured all the way back to September 11, 2001. With a 300 percent increase in requests the first month, we know there were unmet needs among our wounded we had not been able to support previously. Permanent Housing Program: Working with several large banks, we started a permanent housing program we call Homes on the Homefront. We take renovated homes donated by the banks and match them with military families. But that is only the beginning. Each family is assigned a case manager, who provides transition assistance for a period of up to two years. If the family meets the requirements of their customized transition plan, Operation Homefront deeds the property to the family mortgage-free. We expect to have more than 300 families in homes by the end of 2013. While the changes at Operation Homefront have been profound, there are many important things that have not and will not change. We remain committed to being an exceptional steward of our financial resources. Because we controlled administrative and fundraising costs, in 2012 the portion of spending directly on programs supporting military families rose to 95 percent. Our financial position in 2012 remained strong. Thanks to the continued generosity of the American people, our staff and volunteers met 151,150 needs. We are so thankful for our outstanding donors and their commitment to help our military families. We look forward to 2013 with a continued dedication to serve those who make sacrifices for our country, and thank you for joining us in that cause. Sincerely, Jim Knotts President & CEO Operation Homefront 2 ▌ operation homefront inc. • annual report 2012 ► Operation Homefront provides emergency financial and other assistance to the families of our service members and wounded warriors. Vision ► Through generous, widespread public support and a collaborative team of exceptional staff and volunteers, we aspire to become the provider of choice for emergency financial and other assistance to the families of our service members and wounded warriors. Where there is a need we do not provide, we will partner with others for the benefit of our military families. Values ► Our values serve as fundamental principles that govern the behavior of our staff, volunteers, and Board members associated with Operation Homefront. Our core values include: ▐ Honor Patriotism and Service to Country ▐ Do What’s Right ▐ Respect Others ▐ Perform With Excellence History ► Operation Homefront, a 501(c)(3) organization, was formed in February of 2002 to support the families of deployed service members immediately following 9/11. Headquartered in San Antonio, Texas, Operation Homefront currently provides services to military families across the nation with 22 field offices serving 45 states. The national headquarters serves the remaining states. Services ► Operation Homefront provides direct services that alleviate a military family’s or individual’s emergency financial burden, as well as counseling and/or recovery support. Emergency financial assistance is in the form of grants (checks) paid directly to mortgage lenders, auto mechanics, contractors, hospitals, doctors, dentists and other providers. Other emergency assistance, which an applicant receives in 24 to 72 hours, includes: ▐ Financial assistance ▐ Emergency food ▐ Emergency home repairs ▐ Critical baby items: formula, food and diapers ▐ Vehicle repairs and vehicle donations ▐ Furniture and household items The need is greater than ever for basic necessities like food, utilities and rent. Operation Homefront also has programs providing transitional and permanent housing, morale support, and school supplies and holiday toys for military kids. Demographics ► The majority of our clients, 97 percent, are the lowest-paid service members — the E1 through E6 enlisted ranks. Roughly 97 percent live at an income level 80 percent below the median income for the communities in which they reside. Our target population is these junior enlisted and wounded military personnel and/or their families who have unmet needs due to financial hardship, injury, or physical or mental detriment, or financial hardship as a result of service in Iraq or Afghanistan. These may include active duty, Reserve, National Guard and veteran service members. Overall, our military are a diverse ethnic group: approximately 17 percent are African-American; three percent Asian-American or Pacific Islander; ten percent Hispanic/Latino; one percent Native American; and 70 percent Caucasian. Operation Homefront does not discriminate on the grounds of age, ethnicity, gender, religion, geography or physical limitations. Financial Responsibility ► We believe in total transparency with our donors and volunteers, a partnership in responsibility, and a commitment to ethics.

In the space of just 12 months, 100 military families have received mortgage-free homes donated by Chase through Homes on the Homefront. The needs of the program – and Chase’s generosity – go beyond just donating the property. Some homes require renovation, and even disability upgrades to meet the needs of injured service members. Chase finances these renovations and upgrades, and has provided additional grants to assist with the costs of casework and financial counseling performed by Operation Homefront’s master level Human Services Professionals who help military families find a place they can call home. 8 ▌ operation homefront inc. • annual report 2012 Abrams, Roy15 Abrom, Rob and Caroline Ackerman, Thomas*21 Acosta Sales and Marketing Acuity Environmental Solutions3 Adams, Demaka Adolfson & Peterson Construction20 Advisory Board Company23 Agnes III, Dana R and Peter W Ahlers, Tom & Linda26 AIM Sports, Inc.

As a food brand, Eckrich, a division of Smithfield Foods, wanted to help meet that need. Eckrich partnered with Operation Homefront to support military families via food assistance in 2012 through several programs. The formation of the Eckrich Food Assistance Fund provided food to families in need throughout the year. Eckrich also participated in the Holiday Meals for Military program, which helps military families put food on the table during what can be a stressful and expensive time of year. In addition, Eckrich and Operation Homefront hosted Military Family Thank You Days across the country throughout the summer months, which provided military families with a break from the everyday with traditional American cook-outs. operation homefront inc. • annual report 2012 ▐ 9 Top Donors 2012 (continued) DTG Operations, Inc.6 Duffy, Lynda23 Duplin Wine Family, Inc3 Durboraw, Geoff3 Durham, John and Mary Lou Durns, Dawn*3 E.
