USO Supporter,

 

We are so grateful to all our supporters who took the time to honor and thank our service members during Military Appreciation Month and Memorial Day last month. This month, our service members are proving that they deserve every ounce of our support.

 

Read on to learn about the ways you are helping support our members of the military who are risking their lives to serve.

 


The best way to show our service members we stand with them is by wearing the official uniform of military supporters. That’s why we’re sending our 2024 USO T-shirt to all those who give $29 or more today. Will you give now to get your 2024 USO T-shirt and show our service members they have your support?

Thank you to all our supporters who took the opportunity to join us in helping show our gratitude and appreciation to service members in a meaningful way. If you didn’t get a chance to sign our Military Appreciation Month card, you can still let our heroes know you’re thinking of them by signing now.
