Army Community Service (ACS) presents Operation Sugarplum 2024. ACS recognizes that the holiday season can be difficult financially for some of our families. For this reason, each year, Army Community Service partners with local donors to help support service members and their families during the holidays. 

Through Operation Sugarplum, eligible families assigned to Fort Belvoir are given financial assistance in the form of gift cards, toys and food vouchers.


Eligibility:

  • Active Duty
  • E - 5 and below
  • Assigned to Fort Belvoir with at least one child aged 18 or under.
