Operation
Iraqi Children
In 2004, actor Gary Sinise teamed up with author Laura
Hillenbrand and created Operation Iraqi Children (OIC) to give Americans
a practical way to reach out and support our soldiers' efforts to assist
the Iraqi people. Within one year of starting OIC, over 200,000 school
kits have been sent to Iraq, donated, assembled and shipped by growing
numbers of volunteers as word of their effort spreads. OIC’s website
has kit-making directions. OIC is one of many great programs administered
by People to People International (PTPI), private citizens who promote
international understanding through direct people-to-people contacts.
PTPI is a private sector non-profit founded in 1956 by President Dwight
Eisenhower. Reach out to Iraqi children.
