ABOUT Ornaments For Churches
Local Churches and Our Military)
The Ornaments for Churches program is designed as a fundraising community partnership between local churches and the Military Appreciation Directory (MAD)of Northwest Fl.
1) For Churches: This program can be used to raise funds to help cover operational costs, support their missions and help foster community involvement.
2) For the Military Appreciation Directory*: This program raises funds that will help to offset the ongoing costs associated with updating and maintaining the directory.
*FYI: The Military Appreciation Directory (aka MAD) is a FREE resource specifically designed for military families. The MAD lists the area businesses and organizations that support our veterans and military service members. The directory is ONLY funded by sponsorships and this program. For more information on MAD please visit our website by clicking this link: Military Appreciation App - Military Discounts, Nas Pensacola
NOTE: Many veterans and military members are devout people of faith and the ability to attend area churches plays a significant role in their spiritual lives. Ornaments for Churches is proud to support these two very worthy causes.

* Gift-Giving Potential: Ornaments make wonderful and affordable gifts. During the holiday season, people are actively looking for such items, making them an easy sell.
