Operation Wipeout


OPERATION WIPEOUT

 “Operation Wipeout” is now two years old, and Post 205 will continue to provide The Marine Corps Air Station (MCAS) and the Training Depot at Parris Island items that they need. The items needed by the young military families continues to be baby diapers. Our goal has been to provide at least $1,000 worth of diapers of varying sizes on an annual basis.

Your charitable contribution will go a long way in helping these young military families. We hope to make delivery of the diapers each spring. The “Operation Wipeout” Committee already has a pretty good idea of the diaper sizes the families require so there should be no problems. If we should require assistance regarding the transportation of the many boxes of diapers, we will let you know.

UPDATE:  The diapers were delivered on July 12, 2024, by the 'Diaper Brigade' to the joy of Family Services personnel at MCAS.

2024Post 205 Charity Golf Tournament

September 29, 2024

​Post 205 makes a difference to Veterans and their families by supporting the Charleston Fisher House.  The Fisher House provides free lodging and meals to families of Veterans receiving medical care at the VA Hospital. We also make a difference to students that receive scholarships that come from contributions from the Tournament.

Thank you to all our volunteers, all who participated, all our donors, all our sponsors and most of all, the hard-working committee and the Auxiliary 205 for all they did to make this year's Tournament successful.
