Operation North State (ONS) is a 501 c3 non-profit (ALL VOLUNTEER) veterans support services organization that currently offers seventy-three (75) “unique” programs for North Carolina's wounded warriors/DVets and veterans-in-need. In 2026, ONS will host its 17th Annual NCCARES Christmas Box Project - utilizing NC's People, Places, Products, and Pride to deliver 1500 NCCARES Christmas Boxes to North Carolina’s shut-in veterans. And, ONS will host SEVEN (7) Top Shelf Fishin' Festivals throughout the state; these “much-needed” recreational outings are well attended by NC's wound warriors/DVets and their respective caregivers. Additionally, numerous wounded warriors/DVets attend the Fishin’ Festivals from neighboring states. ONS hosts golf and cycling outings too! Also, new in 2026, ONS will host hunting outings.
All these programs are features and overviewed at Facebook: Operation North State in the Photo Albums.
