Operation Good Cheer Statistics

2011 marked the fortieth anniversary of Operation Good Cheer. Each year since its inception in 1971, this all volunteer gift giving program has helped to provide a happy Christmas to hundreds of children, teenagers, and adults with disabilities.

In 2011 we served
More than 4,580 recipients State-wide (infants, children, teenagers, and adults with disabilities) affiliated with 48 agencies [private, nonprofit social service agencies and foster care, residential treatment, and group homes].

Through the volunteer efforts of
Over 270 donor groups, organizations, and individuals; 17 transport companies; 17 airports State-wide; 200 flights by 185 pilots; and more than 300 volunteers at the airport.

Although we are pleased with the ongoing success of our program, even during these difficult economic times, we continue to see a rise in the number of abuse and neglect victims placed in foster care each year. This means our target population is also growing. Each year corporations, small businesses, civic organizations, and private individuals join in our efforts through contributions of time, monetary donations, and gift purchases. If you would like to become a part of this program, please contact our Program Coordinator.

Thank you for your interest in Operation Good Cheer!
