I wanted to make sure you saw this message and provide some additional information from our teams on the ground in Hawaii:
The U.S. military continues to provide critical support on Maui assisting with search and rescue missions and oil and debris containment. They are on 24-hour rotations for the next several days.
The most immediate request is for hot meals — and we’re asking patriotic Americans to step up immediately to help us provide them, along with other essentials for our troops around the world.
Will you rush $29 or more right now to help provide hot meals and other crucial support to our troops around the globe, including those responding to emergencies like the devastating Hawaii wildfires?*
DONATE NOW
Thank you for stepping up for our heroes at this critical moment. We will continue to update you as our rapid-response efforts continue.

The U.S. military has been instrumental in responding to the devastating wildfires in Maui. As residents were forced to flee into the water, members of the Coast Guard were there to rescue them. The National Guard has assisted with fire suppression, and the Army and Navy have provided additional support.
Troops are working closely with state and local officials and will continue to do so as recovery efforts persist. At this critical moment, we need to ensure the USO can be there for our troops throughout this emergency and into the future, and we’re counting on patriotic Americans like you to come through for them:
Please rush $29, or any amount, to show your support for our troops at this urgent moment.
Our service members sacrifice so much to serve and protect our country. When emergencies like these wildfires strike, they’re ready to respond, putting themselves in harm’s way, working around the clock, facing danger and uncertainty … all to keep us safe and free.
Our patriotic duty is to do everything we can to support them, especially when they need it most. Right now, USO staff and volunteers are working to provide essential supplies, water, snacks and comfortable spaces where troops can unwind and access a secure connection to contact their families.
But our work is only possible with your generous support. So please, rush every dollar you can spare to stand with our heroes in uniform right now.
Thank you for showing our heroes that folks back home are with them through thick and thin.
The USO
*Your contribution will be joined with the contributions of others and used where it is needed most to strengthen America’s military service members by keeping them connected to family, home and country.
