A Navy lieutenant commander recently told us that USO Care Packages are a “constant reminder to those of us out ‘in the sandbox’ that we are not forgotten and folks back home actually care.”

Now, as we work to deliver our brave service members a touch of home for the holidays, we need to ask for your support.

It takes a lot of time, coordination and money to get our holiday care packages to more than 200,000 service members who are away from their families, sacrificing so much defending our freedoms. The USO is not a government agency – we rely on the generosity and patriotism of citizens like you.

But right now, time is running out before our midnight deadline, and we need your support. Help us make sure that we have the resources to support our troops. Will you please donate by MIDNIGHT tonight to send a little bit of home to our service members and show them how thankful you are?
