Operation Kids is a non-profit organization that matches caring donors with qualified children's charities and programs in the areas of health, education, safety and well-being. Operation Kids seeks to measurably improve the lives of children by identifying charities and programs most effectively addressing key issues.
Operation Kids will reward the metropolitan area that raises the most money during the campaign by contributing a portion of the proceeds to a local children's health charity or program to help children in their own community.
"Operation Kids is an amazing charity in that they benefit SO MANY and in such different circumstances, not just limiting to one thing or another" says Raye. "And the lengths they go to to be accountable, assuring the donors of where the money goes and to whom," he continues, "that in itself makes Operation Kids very special. Through them, so many children are helped. It's a true honor and privilege to be associated with Operation Kids."
"The song deeply touches everyone that hears it and from the beginning we wanted to work with Collin to bring Operation Kids some help for all their great work," said Mike Jason, Time Life Senior Vice President Audio & Video Retail.
