OTK Support Request Form

Do you know a military family Operation Top Knot should be helping? To receive Top Knot support, a military family must meet the following criteria:

Have a deployed* parent or be an active duty military service woman AND be expecting a child or have a child under the age of two.

The OTK team focuses on military moms with deployed spouses and those who are active-duty service women themselves.  However, if you know of a new/expectant military mom who needs extra support even though her husband is NOT deployed (such as stateside/wounded/veteran), please do not hesitate to request support for her (be sure to note her special circumstances in the "Comments" box on the form).  If a family does not fill out this form themselves, they will be contacted to verify their desire to receive support.

To submit a family for Operation Top Knot support, please complete the following form NO EARLIER THAN THREE MONTHS PRIOR TO THE BABY'S DUE DATE.   Each blank on the form MUST be answered completely.  Incomplete/too early nominations will be returned (the more complete the information provided, the better OTK Angels will be able to "shower" these expecting families with support). 

Please note:  The OTK team is an all volunteer group of Angels who donate baby items using their own funds and postage to support our military families.  We do our best to fill any large needs (i.e. cribs, car seats, highchairs, etc) from our limited funds, so please list items the family is financially unable to acquire in the additional information section.

Upon review, the person submitting the form AND the expecting mom will be contacted (OTK must have the expecting mom's approval via e-mail in order for her to be listed for "showering" in the month she is due).  Email optopknot@soldiersangels.org if you have any questions.  You can see our privacy policy here.
