NEOPAT’s Adopt A Military Family – A Great Success!

As we reflect on the holiday season, we are thrilled to share the incredible success of NEOPAT’s 2024 Adopt a Military Family Program! Through the extraordinary generosity of over 50 sponsors, we were able to provide support, joy, and peace of mind to more than 70 military families and their 176 children.


This program embodies the spirit of giving and gratitude, offering a heartfelt way for individuals and organizations to say “thank you” to those who have sacrificed so much for our nation. Beyond the gifts, this initiative fosters connection and community, ensuring that our military families feel appreciated and loved during the holiday season.

Each family touched by the program has a unique story, showcasing both their sacrifices and the profound impact of our community’s support. Here are just a few examples:

Retired Army Veteran: A retiree living with PTSD, this single parent works tirelessly to rebuild life while attending paramedic school. Limited income made this holiday season challenging, but assistance from the program eased the financial burden, bringing a memorable holiday experience for their children.

Spouse of Army Reservist: With a spouse serving 26 years in the Army Reserve and facing a parent’s recurring battle with breast cancer, this family balances a full plate caring for six children. Support from a dedicated sponsor group not only brought gifts to their household but also helped them navigate the transition into military retirement.

Army Veteran: After a year marked by homelessness and job loss, this family faced a difficult holiday season. With the help of sponsors, their children received gifts that brought hope, warmth, and
togetherness during this challenging time.

We extend our deepest gratitude to all the sponsors, volunteers, and community members who made this year’s Adopt a Military Family Program a success. Together, we not only brightened the holidays
for these families but also reminded them of the unwavering support and appreciation they have from their community.

As we move forward, let’s carry the spirit of this program into the new year, continuing to uplift and honor those who have given so much for our freedom. Thank you for being a part of this mission.
