Operation
Homefront Brings Mobile Homes to Ten Military Families Who Lost
All Due to Katrina
Santa Ana, CA - In furthering its
mission to assist military families in need, Operation Homefront
has made ten mobile homes available to military families in the
Gulfport, Mississippi area.
Navy Seabee John Rench will be first
among those receiving a home. Having lost everything and
exhausting all other government and private sector resources,
Rench will accept delivery of his mobile home even as the ruins
of his former residence still remain.
Eight homes have been allocated thus
far and are scheduled for delivery beginning February 15. Homes
are allocated based on need and completion of an assessment
application.
The homes have been made available
thanks to a donation from
Mid-Atlantic Military Family Communities, LLC, a partnership
between the United States Navy and Lincoln Property Company. "We
are grateful to Lincoln Housing for partnering with us on this
important endeavor," said Operation Homefront VP of Operations,
Amy Palmer. "So many military families are still suffering
homelessness in the aftermath of Katrina. With this generous
donation, ten families will at long last have permanent
shelter."
Operation Homefront is a tax-exempt 501 c (3) organization
headquartered at 1631 Sunflower, Suite C-34, Santa Ana, CA. For
inquiries or to apply for a mobile home, the public may call
