YOUR YEAR-END GIFT FOR OUR SERVICE
MEMBERS WILL BE QUADRUPLED

This is it . With just hours left in the year to raise $500,000, I need your help now to ensure we can be there for our service members in 2025 and beyond.

And to help make sure we reach this critical goal, a generous group of donors is matching your gift four times, up to a total of $150,000, until midnight tonight!

This is the best match opportunity the USO has offered, and we can’t afford to waste it. There are so many service members who are depending on the USO, and we are depending on you.

So please, will you make a tax-deductible gift of $29 or more to QUADRUPLE the value of your gift for our service members?

My brother served in the U.S. Navy, so I’ve seen firsthand the sacrifices service members make, from spending long months isolated at sea to missing precious holidays moments with loved ones. That’s why I’m proud the USO can bring a small piece of home to our heroes through care packages, warm holiday meals and Wi-Fi connections to video call their families.

And why I’m personally asking in these final hours of this year: Will you make a 4X-matched, tax-deductible gift of 29 (becomes $116) or more to help the USO support our service members throughout 2025?

As we close out 2024, we reflect on the extraordinary challenges our military faced this year. These heroes ...

  • Provided emergency response relief during the devastating hurricanes — Helene and Milton — that destroyed so much of the Southeast
  • Supported our allies during increased conflict in the Middle East
  • Spent long months deployed overseas, with limited contact with family
  • Missed spending the holiday season with their loved ones

Our service members showed resilience and bravery this year in the face of unpredictable adversity and continue to sacrifice so much for our country. Now it’s our turn to stand with them as they prepare for whatever 2025 may bring.

But we can’t do it without you . As a nonprofit, we rely on the generosity of supporters like you to carry out our mission.

Will you please make your tax-deductible gift of $29 (becomes $116) or more by midnight tonight so your contribution will go four times as far in supporting our heroes in uniform in the year ahead?

Thank you for standing with us and with our heroes. Together, we can show our service members they’re never far from our hearts, no matter where they are in the world.

On behalf of all of us here at the USO, and the millions of service members and families we support, I want to wish you a very happy and blessed New Year!

Tabitha Glenn, VP, USO
