Operation Pillow Hugs

Pillowcases decorated with positive messages and designs

Under our FORMS page, you will find this easy, fun volunteer mission we love to receive any time of year to bring a smile to our hospitalized and homeless veterans and deployed troops!

We collect them anytime of the year so please share this project with students, teachers and families . For Valentines Day - we are hoping to get at least 250 in honor of our nation’s 250th birthday this year to cheer up our troops and veterans away from home.

✅Past projects:

In August 2022 - Former Robb Elementary Students in Uvalde who survived the tragic shootings were reminded they were not alone as they entered new schools. Students and Teachers from around the nation sent in decorated pillowcases of hope and support just as we did for Parkland students after their tragic mass shooting.

Past and present:

For decades now we send pillow hugs to troops and veterans worldwide and they always share it brings the best smiles !

This is a super volunteer project for any students, sports teams or clubs.

We invite students of all abilities and ages to help us lift spirits and share this idea with your teachers and coaches!

It’s also a wonderful idea for a mitzvah, confirmation or business volunteer project.

Formal volunteer credit can be received if needed for school by emailing Volunteer@HomefrontHugs.org.

Thanks so much for wanting to lift spirits, and yes, fabric markers work best!
