Hi everyone! 

 

It’s hard to believe this is the last Founder’s Message of 2023. OHT has once again accomplished so much this year and we have YOU to thank for our success. 

 

When I first started OHT, my goal was to hit $1 million in donations but knew that would be very difficult. Was there enough support to get to this magical number?  

 

Well, YES there was and we have continued to be successful despite the Pandemic, shipping issues, too much inventory at retail and inflation to name a few things that could have set us back. But, that didn’t happen and I can’t wait until 2024 when we will reach the $5 million mark. And, we WILL!! Never in my wildest dreams did I think this would be possible!!

 

This holiday season I hope you get to be with family and those you love most. I wish you much success and good health and pray that peace is in our future. For those service members who are deployed, may you be safe and well. For those veterans needing help, I hope you find the assistance you need.

 

So much more to come in 2024. Thanks again for helping OHT fill some critical gaps in care.

 

Warmest Regards,

 

 

The 2023 Nathan Hardy Memorial game, which took place this past Saturday, Dec. 2nd, was another one for the books!

 

 

It had everything: Warrior For Life Fund All Stars, Bruins Alumni (including Patrice Bergeron and Kevan Miller), Chick-fil-A, Steve and Donna Hardy (Nate's parents), and so much OHT gear (to see it throughout the sold out arena was incredible)!

 

 

We are already looking forward to next year!!

 

 

OHT would like to take a minute to give a big shoutout to Connor Devine (pictured above) who recently created a personal fundraiser in the name of Operation Hat Trick. We are proud to know you. Thank you for helping us change the lives of veterans!

 

 

OHT recently made another round of donations to assist wounded and recovering veterans. The organizations receiving the donations are the 38 Challenge, Northeast Passage, the Hyner Lodge Foundation and Undersea Warriors. These donations will aid in veteran support in various ways.
