Since 2008, <strong>the</strong> <strong>Fraternal</strong> <strong>Order</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Eagles</strong> has reached out to military men<br />
and women across <strong>the</strong> world to donate goods through <strong>the</strong> ‘Operation<br />
Eagle’ program. The program is designed to show <strong>the</strong> <strong>Eagles</strong>’ appreciation <strong>for</strong><br />
members or <strong>the</strong> children <strong>of</strong> Eagle members who are currently serving in <strong>the</strong><br />
military by sending items needed by <strong>the</strong>ir units.<br />
This year, <strong>the</strong> program becomes an annual Eagle event, moving away from<br />
<strong>the</strong> quarterly donation system <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> past. This change allows us to focus our<br />
ef<strong>for</strong>ts and provide aid and assistance to our troops in <strong>the</strong> most efficient<br />
manner possible.<br />
Please do not ship any donations now. The collection period <strong>for</strong> donations<br />
<strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong> 2010 Operation Eagle program begins September 1 and runs through<br />
<strong>the</strong> end <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> month. All donations to be shipped to <strong>the</strong> Operation Eagle<br />
winning nominees must be sent in during this period.<br />
As <strong>the</strong> process continues, a list <strong>of</strong> suggested items will be posted on<br />
www.foe.com. We ask that you visit <strong>the</strong> site be<strong>for</strong>e sending in any goods to<br />
ensure that <strong>the</strong> supplies enclosed in your packages are goods acceptable <strong>for</strong><br />
being shipped overseas. Any restrictions on items will be posted online.<br />
Packages will be shipped to winners in time <strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong> Christmas holiday. We<br />
encourage all <strong>of</strong> you to participate and help those who protect our freedoms.<br />
