Our Mission
Saving Lives and
Supporting Heroes 
Every day, nearly 20 veterans lose their lives to suicide. Operation HOH aims to combat this tragedy through two key goals:
Raising Awareness
Educating veterans and civilians that it’s okay to seek help and raising awareness about the unique challenges of transitioning back to civilian life.
Providing Resources
Filling the gaps where government programs fall short by offering veterans private support services and the attention they need to successfully transition home.
Operation HOH partners with organizations that specialize in mental health care and veteran support.

Our Purpose
Honoring
CPT Francis
‘Franky’ Kim
Operation HOH was founded to honor the life of CPT Francis ‘Franky’ Kim, an Army veteran who battled mental health struggles after leaving service. Franky’s tragic loss inspired his close friends, Everett Weston and Patrick Bolchoz, to dedicate their efforts to preventing further unnecessary loss among veterans.
