Operation: Red, White, and New



Hello!

My name is Phil, and my wife's name is Violet. I have the privilege of serving as an active duty Marine Corps Officer and have always been a proud patriot. My wife and I are extremely blessed to live in America and to enjoy all of her freedoms, and as a small token of our appreciation we wanted to share our love and respect for this amazing country with others in our community by creating Operation: Red, White, and New.

Operation: Red, White, and New is all about restoration; bringing new American flags to homes, businesses, schools, churches, cemeteries, etc. that have worn out, and tattered flags flying. In a time where there is so much going on, hate, racism, etc... we hope that each flag that is donated brings a little bit of unity and a renewed sense of patriotism to our community!

How this works: We ask that you donate a total of $17.76, or whatever is in your heart to give, in order for us to purchase a brand new American Flag. We will then drive to homes, schools, businesses, etc. that have worn out flags flying, and we will donate the flag, free of charge, with a little letter attached to each flag! All that we ask in return is a picture of the new flag flying. We will collect all the pictures and post them at the end of the project. 

We are purchasing only high quality flags! The flags we are purchasing are made by Annin: the company who made the flag that draped over Abraham Lincolns casket, the flag that was raised on Iwo Jima, and the flag sent to the moon!


We hope that you feel as passionate about our amazing country and our flag as we do, and we can't wait to partner with you!
