In just a few days, Americans will celebrate Christmas and New Year’s with family, friends, food and fun. However you celebrate, we sincerely hope you enjoy this time with family and loved ones.
But for troops deployed in some of the world’s most dangerous places to protect our freedom, it’ll just be another day. Another day in a lonely barracks, thousands of miles away from their loved ones. Another day of the same old mess hall food. Another day of hoping they’ll be able to find a way to call home before their kids go to bed. It’s up to us to brighten this day for them.
As the country gets ready to celebrate, the USO is determined to uplift our troops during the holiday season by providing critical programs and services, including at least 3,000 calls home so service members can talk to their families.**
And we’re so glad to share that a member of USO’s Board of Governors has agreed to MATCH all donations, dollar for dollar, up to a total of $35,000, but we’re counting on YOU to help us reach this ambitious goal by midnight Monday.
| $29 CAN HELP FUND TWO PHONE CALLS HOME** |
| $58 CAN HELP FUND FOUR PHONE CALLS HOME** |
| HAVE ANOTHER AMOUNT MATCHED |
Spending the holidays far away from their loved ones is just one of many, many sacrifices our troops make throughout the year in service of our country, asking nothing of us in return. We may not be able to bring them home or fully understand the challenges they go through — but we can make sure they can talk to loved ones back home.
| MATCH MY GIFT |
Thank you for supporting our country’s heroes in uniform when it matters most.
