CVS Health is sponsoring Star-Spangled Babies, a baby shower program created by national nonprofit Operation Homefront, which provides short- and long-term support for military parents.
The goal of the program is to build morale among military families by hosting baby showers for service members and their growing families. In September, CVS Health sent a dozen employees to San Antonio to help set up a baby shower. The event included new and expecting parents and involved early childhood education tips and a CVS Health Critical Baby Care bag.
CVS Health will also use the partnership to provide home baskets with essential household items to families in another Operation Homefront program, Homes on Homefront. This platform gives mortgage-free homes and financial training to military families.
“Operation Homefront is extremely grateful for CVS Health’s unwavering commitment to our military families,” Brig. Gen. John Pray Jr. (Ret.), president and CEO of Operation Homefront, said. “Our shared focus on the health and well-being of those who do so much to serve all of us will help them truly thrive, not simply struggle to get by, in the communities they’ve worked so hard to protect.”
