Posted by MLC Secret Squirrel Blog Writer on Oct 31st 2024
In the 22nd episode of Honoring Hidden Heroes, we sit down to talk with Peggy Baker, the founder of Operation First Response. After 9/11, Peggy’s son joined the military and she felt she needed to do her part to honor and support our troops at home, which led to the creation of Operation First Response.
Since its inception, Operation First Response has focused on assisting service members, first responders, disabled veterans, and Gold Star families. Their assistance includes providing financial aid to families with emergency needs, helping with financial strain during PTSD treatment, and more. Peggy discusses these programs in our 22nd episode and talks about the impact they make for service members and their families.
When you tune into this month’s episode, you’ll learn all about this inspiring organization, the impressive work they do, and how you can get involved if you want to support their cause.
