USO Supporter,

I wanted to reach out right away because we sent out a Giving Tuesday email this morning ... a bit early. Today is clearly NOT Giving Tuesday (or even Tuesday!).

But a big thank you to everyone who donated anyway! Giving Tuesday is the biggest fundraising day of the year for the USO, so we truly appreciate your (early) support, and every dollar will still go to helping the USO support our brave service members.

If you’d still like to support our heroes in uniform with a pre-Giving Tuesday matched gift, here’s a new personalized link for you: https://uso.org/donate/kmyers209.shamrock5@blogger.com

As always, thank you for your support and for standing with our service members,

The USO

ALL GIFTS MATCHED

 
2X YOUR GIFT NOW

We're reaching out with three reasons why your gift to the USO today is mission-critical in supporting our brave service members.

  1. Our heroes in uniform make countless unseen sacrifices — including spending the holidays far from their families and loved ones. Your support helps them stay connected to home when they need it most, in the form of a video call and the comfort of a warm holiday meal enjoyed at a USO Center.

  2. The USO is a nonprofit organization that relies on the generosity and support of people who care deeply about our service members — like you. We are not a government agency — we’re an organization dedicated to supporting military heroes and their families. Your generous gift today will help advance the USO mission of strengthening the well-being of those who serve.

  3. Today, your generosity will also be MATCHED, dollar for dollar, up to a total of $50,000, thanks to a generous group of donors. So that means every dollar you give will be worth twice as much to provide vital support to those who serve.

As you enjoy family and friends this holiday season, please take a moment to remember our service members far from home. From providing support in the Middle East to hurricane relief in North Carolina, our heroes in uniform are always ready to serve. And your Giving Tuesday donation will help the USO bring them a sense of connection and home this holiday season and into the new year.

So please, will you donate $29 or more now to help us reach our $500,000 Giving Tuesday goal via email and text message and have the value of your gift DOUBLED to support our service members?

Thank you for supporting the USO. Your generosity truly makes a difference.

With gratitude,

The USO
