The Blue Star Families mission is to support, empower and connect military families to each other, their communities and to people in power. We work directly with DoD, Senate, Congress and the White House to bring military families´most important issues to light. Blue Star Families also works with other nonprofits and community advocates to develop and offer innovative programs that truly help military families – from children´s literacy and entertainment initiatives to programs that help communicate the public´s often unexpressed appreciation for everything military families do every day.
