The two organizations held the third annual Bruegger's Bagels Red, White and Blue fundraiser, where Bruegger's sold bagels resembling the American Flag Colors. Bruegger's officials said they made 70,650 red, white and blue bagels for the fundraiser.
Operation Homefront spokesperson Amy Palmer said a portion of the proceeds will benefit families.
 
"Operation Homefront will put the proceeds to good use by providing emergency assistance to the families of our deployed service members," she said. 
 
 
Operation Homefront's motto is: "Supporting our troops and the families they left behind." The organization was created in the aftermath of September 11 to channel volunteer support to help U.S. troops, families of deployed military personnel, and wounded servicemen and women.
