| URGENT: SUPPORT NEEDED AS TROOPS AND CIVILIANS FACE DEADLY HEAT WAVE IN SICILY |
As communities across the globe face dangerous heat waves this summer, U.S. troops are doing everything they can to help.
Temperatures in Sicily have reached 118 degrees, putting pressure on the island’s power grid and basic services. The USO is expanding our hours in Sicily to ensure we can provide snacks, water, air conditioning and a place of refuge to troops 24/7. Our volunteers are also assisting owners with caring for their pets who have been brought into an air-conditioned gym to wait out the heat. We will continue to monitor the situation and do whatever it takes to be there for our troops — but we’re counting on your support to keep efforts like these going for service members around the world.
Many people are experiencing power outages, and cities are having difficulty supplying drinking water — both of which could have deadly consequences in 100+ degree weather.

U.S. Naval Air Station Sigonella officials are offering emergency housing to those experiencing blackouts, and the USO is determined to support our affected troops throughout this emergency and everything they face, but we need your help.
