More soldiers reap benefits of our
generous community
Operation Mom sends a heartfelt thanks to the Colfax VFW and Ladies Auxiliary recalling the valor and bravery of the selfless firefighters, law enforcement officers and rescue workers of 9/11 whose ultimate sacrifice was their lives.
On Sept. 13, we gathered to honor our fallen heroes of 9/11 and to honor our own local heroes. To our local law enforcement officers, firefighters, EMTs and paramedics, thank you for protecting us from those who would harm us, finding us when we are lost, aiding us when we are hurt and protecting us from fire and other potentially hazardous conditions.
Operation Mom would also like to thank Gold Run CHP, Colfax City Volunteer Fire Department and Colfax CDF Station 30 for their donations that will help us send packages to our troops currently deployed overseas. Through their kindness, Operation Mom will send another 25 packages called “A Little Touch of Home” this month. To date, we currently mail, on average, 70 packages each month.
