It’s no surprise that the effects of military service on children’s education and childcare are major concerns for active-duty families — only half of military family respondents surveyed said their child’s school understands the challenges of military families.

Many military families go through a permanent change of station move every two to four years, and service member parents often deploy for months — or even years — at a moment’s notice. For kids like Liam, who just went through his fourth military move, that means the USO can be one of the only constants in their lives.

To be there for Liam and other military kids, the USO works hard every day to offer programs and services for military children and their families. But as a nonprofit organization, we rely on military supporters like you to help us serve the military families who serve us. And right now, families like Liam’s need to know they have our support: Will you please sign our card now to help us reach our goal to obtain 50,000 signatures via emails and text messages before our midnight deadline on Thursday to let military children and their families know that we understand and appreciate their sacrifice?

Thanks to USO programs like Read2Connect, Liam doesn’t have to worry about staying in touch with family members and friends far away. He can record himself reading a story and write a letter to people like grandparents, cousins, and other loved ones — just one of the ways the USO is there for military kids.

And no matter where his family’s service takes him, Liam will always be able to turn to one of our 250 local USO Centers around the globe as a place of comfort and fun — where he’ll be surrounded by a supportive community that understands the unique challenges he faces as a military kid.

But as military families like Liam’s continue to make immense sacrifices to keep us safe and free, it’s up to all of us to let them know that patriotic Americans support them no matter what: So please, will you sign our card now to help us reach our 50,000 signature goal before midnight Thursday and show military children and families that we will never forget their service?

Thank you for helping us serve those who serve.
