Operation Not Alone 2001-2006

Welcome to "Operation Not Alone"

We all have important values and ideas, things we care about and want to share. Sometimes we feel our ideas can even change the world, and we want to let other people know how they can join in and make all our lives better. "Operation Not Alone" has been created by myself, Jessica Patraw to help battered women and children have a happy holiday season.

Our Mission

There are battered women & children all over the world. I want to make a difference and touch those lives in a caring way. Although, have not been able to give to ent entire US in our first 5 years of this campaign every year we are able to give out more! My goal is to do this for many years to come.

For more about this please go to the "About Us" page.

What I Plan To Do & How I Plan To Accomplish It:

We will create special gift baskets and gift bags to send to womens & childrens shelters. The baskets and bags will contain many of the daily essentials that many of us take for granted on a day to day basis. Womens baskets may contain items such as shampoo, diff. soaps, toiletries etc, with some special things such as make up, nail polish, stationary and more. And we will also add special food items, like cheese, crackers, jelly, candies, chocolates etc. Childrens baskets will contain some of the same daily essentials plus games and toys, maybe even t-shirts, and baby items for the infant baskets etc.

To accomplish this I must rely on others as well. Through donations, fundraisers etc. I, Jessica and my mother Godi, along with my children, family and friends, will not only donate what we can to go towards this but our time and efforts to put the baskets and bags together.

Coming soon we will open an Internet Shopping Mall site. Where Business owners/webmasters can have a listing for only $20 per year. There, we will also host silent auctions on items donated towards this cause. Funds from this will go towards "Operation Not Alone," running the site, advertising etc. Everything that your business makes is 100% yours to keep.

Everyone involved will receive a list of those involved, unless they want to remain anonymous, donated items, donation amount. And when the baskets go out, a listing of where they went to.

There will be several News Releases, and as much publicity as possible so that everyone gets more customers. In the long run our goal is for this to be a win-win situation for everyone especially the very deserving recipients of the gift baskets.

Please go to our "Getting Involved" page. There you will find all the information you need to help in this great cause.

Thank you for visiting this site and supporting this wonderful cause. As without your support this would not be possible.
