About Operation Homefront

Operation Homefront’s mission is to build strong, stable and secure military and veteran families by improving their financial, emotional and social well-being.

Operation Homefront’s Transitional Housing – Apartments provide veterans with a rent/utilities free apartment for one year, while giving them the opportunity to utilize both employment and financial counselor services to help achieve stability and chart a path to long-term post military success.

“We want to thank Bob’s Discount Furniture and its customers, for supporting Café Collection For A Cause,” said Regan Huneycutt, Operation Homefront Chief Revenue Officer.“A key aspect to our mission is to ensure that military families have access to the support and resources they need to stay strong in the face of adversity and I’m so proud that,together, we will continue to make an impact on those that have given so much on behalf of all of us.”
