Our History:
Kristen Holloway, founder and President of Operation Troop Appreciation, embarked on a personal project in March 2004 to provide Under Armour® t-shirts to a local Pennsylvania National Guard platoon (1/107 FA, Alpha Company 759 MP) of 38 soldiers deployed in Iraq.
An overwhelmingly positive response from the soldiers, those who helped with the project and from family and friends proved to be the spark that gave birth to Operation Troop Appreciation. It only took a few months to grow this one simple project into a national organization; and on July 1, 2004, Operation Troop Appreciation was established as a Pennsylvania non-profit corporation, with federal 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status.
Since that time, hundreds of thousands of members of the military and veteran communities have received support from Operation Troop Appreciation. The generosity of private individuals, small business partnerships, and corporate sponsors, has enabled Operation Troop Appreciation to present a united front of appreciation to our American heroes.
