Flex Seal Returns as a Sponsor for Operation Christmas Drop in 2025
Flex Seal is proud to once again support Operation Christmas Drop, the Department of Defense's longest-running humanitarian mission. This 100% volunteer, nonprofit organization brings together military aircrews and partner nations to deliver vital supplies to some of the world's most isolated islands. In 2025, they will deliver 270 boxes to more than 60 islands, reaching tens of thousands of people across the region.
"We first partnered with Operation Christmas Drop in 2021 and are grateful for the chance to give back again," said Phil Swift, CEO, Inventor, and Spokesman for the Flex Seal Family of Products. "This mission reaches communities that depend on supplies not just for the holidays, but for everyday life. Knowing our products can help people with vital repairs means so much to all of us."
Our Donation
As a Reindeer Rescuer Sponsor for the drop's 74th year, we've donated more than $16,000 worth of Flex Super Glue and Flex Super Wide Duct Tape to help remote island communities across the Pacific. These products will be included in every box delivered during the 2025 Operation Christmas Drop, ensuring that practical repair tools reach the hands of people who will use them immediately and throughout the year.
"When we heard Flex Seal was once again part of the mission, our entire team was thrilled," said Hailey Westrick, Executive Director of Operation Christmas Drop 2025. "These products truly serve as a lifeline for the islanders we support. Flex Seal empowers communities to stay safe and self-sufficient, and we're honored to have their continued partnership in this historic year."
Filling a Need
Operation Christmas Drop's leadership shared that Flex Seal products are the most requested items in the organization's history. That comes down to the conditions island communities face every day: harsh sun, saltwater exposure, heavy rains, and frequent typhoon damage. When repairs are needed, access to replacement supplies can be limited by distance, transportation, and cost. Our durable, easy-to-use repair products can bridge that gap.
In places where self-reliance is a necessity, dependable repair options become part of everyday safety and preparedness. We are proud to help provide our products to these communities.
Hearing directly from the volunteers leading this year's mission reinforces the importance of this support.
Special Delivery
These essential care packages will begin shipping from Andersen Air Force Base in early December, with deliveries reaching island communities before the holidays. Operation Christmas Drop has built an extraordinary legacy of service over 74 years, and its impact continues to grow because of public donations and partner support.

The Flex Seal Family is proud to stand alongside the volunteers and military teams who make this humanitarian airlift possible, and we're grateful for the opportunity to contribute.
