Operation Hammond is happy to announce that we will be providing our first aid services at Katsucon in National Harbor, MD February 17th-19th. Katsucon is our largest event, and we're very excited to return.

If you need first aid or would like to stop by and say hello, you can find us in Camellia 3&4 in the Gaylord National Resort and Convention Center.

If you need Operation Hammond at any point this weekend, we are located in Camellia 3&4 in the Gaylord National Resort and Convention Center.

Happy birthday to My Hero Academia’s Izuku Midoriya! This hero in training may still have a long way to go before reaching his goal, but he’s come so far from his early days in Class 1A.

Between that and how well he rocks that O.H. green, we had to give Deku a birthday shout-out!

This Sunday, Peculiar_Little_Rabbit, aka VTuber Beatrix Bunny, will be running a charity donothon on Twitch benefitting Operation Hammond. It will be a fun time with something for everyone, so be sure to check it out! Last year’s was a great success, and with your help, this one can be even better!

As EMS Week wraps up, Operation Hammond would like to once again commend everyone in EMS who continues to diligently care for our communities. Even in normal times, it can be an incredibly difficult job, and we know the past year has been far from normal. Thank you for all you do. Share this post and tag someone working in EMS that you want to recognize.

May 16th marks the beginning of EMS Week!

The 2021 theme is “THIS Is EMS: Caring for Our Communities.” Countless EMTs and paramedics - including many of Operation Hammond’s members - have continued to serve their communities throughout the COVID-19 pandemic in environments of increased stress and risk. We are more grateful now than ever for their continued dedication and hard work.

As you know, COVID has had a major impact on all of our lives. Operation Hammond has been working tirelessly to take advantage of our down-time during the pandemic. We are doing everything in our power to offer new and exciting services to the communities we love and serve. Because of your continued support, Operation Hammond is growing, adapting, and healing. Despite this, we desperately need your help. 

Even with the suspension of most events, our operating costs continue to pile up. Operation Hammond is at a point where we must ask - can you help us continue? Without your support, this will not be possible. Every dollar matters and your donation can help us toward implementing new programs that will allow us to expand our charitable missions. These programs will allow us to assist in the safe return to conventions when the time is right. They will also allow us to bring new and exciting education & training to the communities we serve. With your support, we’re truly excited about the direction we’re headed in.

This Giving Tuesday, Operation Hammond is reaching out and asking our supporters to please do what you can to help us continue our work. We as an organization want nothing more than to continue helping the communities we serve for years to come. 

We understand that we are asking for your help amidst the global crisis that is COVID-19. If you’re unable to help, please consider sharing this post. 

We are currently fundraising via Kindest. Here is where our fundraising page can be found:
