Military service is unlike any other—a calling to defend and protect with family right by your side. This month, we invite you to join us in recognizing the service and sacrifice that both our service members and their families demonstrate. As we salute those who wear the uniform, let`s also recognize the families who stand beside them.

We’re thrilled to share that NMFA visited #HealthNetFederalServices in Sacramento, where hundreds of #HealthNet employees came together to pack supply kits for our Operation Purple Summer Challenge families!

These 1,500 kits, provided by Health Net, are packed with resources to engage kids in STEM, literacy, creativity, and outdoor activities—helping them dream, think, and move outside all summer long. Each kit even includes a handwritten note from an employee, adding a personal touch to every family`s experience.

Thank you, Health Net, for hosting, assembling, and supporting this incredible effort!

Dear President Trump,
We write to you as Republicans, Democrats, and Independents. Some of us thought America was already great; others hope you will make her great again. Whatever our politics, we’re united in our call to serve our nation. And we write to you as America’s military families.
