Sorry to interrupt your New Year’s Eve celebrations, but I needed to make sure you saw Alan’s message from earlier.
I’ve checked in with our finance team — and we’re falling short of our year-end goal to raise $500,000 to support troops in 2024 and beyond. If you haven’t had the chance to make a tripled gift* to help us reach our end-of-year goal, it’s not too late! Every dollar you can give is critical as the USO works to provide our troops with essential resources and connections to home during the holidays and into the new year, AND it will be worth THREE TIMES as much, so please:
Can I count on you to rush a tax-deductible gift of $29 or more, before this rare triple-match offer expires at midnight, to have the value of your gift tripled for our troops? Every dollar will help them stay connected to family, home and country as they make incredible sacrifices to keep us safe and free.
Thank you,

Sydney, this is it: Today is your last day to help us reach our crucial $500,000 year-end goal to help ensure we can be there for service members whenever and wherever they’re deployed in 2024 and beyond.
It’s so critical that we reach this goal before the year ends that a generous group of our donors is TRIPLE-MATCHING all gifts up to a total of $100,000! But we still need military supporters like you to take advantage of this incredible opportunity before it expires at midnight:
| TRIPLE YOUR TAX-DEDUCTIBLE DONATION |
This year, our troops conducted lifesaving missions and helped our communities recover after devastating natural disasters in Florida and Hawaii. They responded to the call of duty and deployed urgently to the Middle East as the Israel-Hamas war erupted. They endured freezing temperatures and difficult conditions in Eastern Europe to support our NATO allies and the people of Ukraine in any way they could. And thanks to your support, we were able to be with them every step of the way.
But with so many new and ongoing conflicts brewing, we need to do everything we can to best position ourselves to support our active-duty heroes in 2024. And due to inflation and supply chain shortages, it costs more than ever to provide the care packages, Wi-Fi and technology to call home and other programs and services our troops rely on as we enter the new year.
| TRIPLE YOUR TAX-DEDUCTIBLE DONATION |
Thank you so much for being a part of this patriotic community of military supporters. Have a very happy and safe New Year!
