Operation Shower's mission is to host group baby showers for military moms and moms-to-be. The military momnominated for a Shower must (1) have a spouse or partner who is deployed, deploying during the pregnancy, (2)be active duty with a group that is deploying or (3) have a partner who was injured during deployment.we also include families who undergo extended non-deployment absences during the pregnancy or haveadditional stressors. We ask that the moms have not been previously showered by another group during thecurrent pregnancy, and that the baby is no older than three months at the time of the shower.operation Shower hosted 21 group baby showers in 2023 for moms in Arizona, Colorado, Connecticut, florida,new york, Texas, Massachusetts, Utah, south carolina, Hawaii and Missouri. The showers were on averageover 29 moms. Operation Shower also sent over 187 additional Shower boxes to military moms across thecountry. The total number of moms served in 2023 was 797 moms.families in all branches of the military were served by our showers. Operation Shower provided baby gifts to thefamilies to relieve the stress caused by deployment and active duty and allowed families in similar situations toconnect with each other. Operation Shower continued its b is for baby program and welcome, baby boxprogram. Through these programs, the organization was able to provide baby showers in a box to those familieswho were unable to be at a Shower in person. This program has allowed the organization to reach families andprovide items to those in need and deserving of the organization's support.these programs allow an opportunity for individuals and companies to express their thanks, love, and support tomilitary families through their various donations.
