Since 2011, Jack Daniel's Operation Ride Home program has helped bring military families together for the holidays. Operation Ride Home provides financial assistance to eligible active duty junior-enlisted military and their families to travel from their duty station, back home to spend time with their families. Reconnecting military families during this special time of year is one small way Operation Ride Home is strengthening military families. To date, Jack Daniel's Operation Ride Home has helped more than 6,400 travel home for the holidays.
