As troops spend the holiday season stationed far away from their families, we are asking patriotic Americans like you to let them know their sacrifices haven’t been forgotten.

USO Supporter,

Our family is just one of hundreds of thousands of military families who have spent holidays apart. My husband (Vincent’s father) is a captain in the Army, and unfortunately, this is the reality for many military families like ours.

We’re incredibly proud of his service, but we still miss him so much when he leaves. And we can tell you from our family’s experience — this can be the toughest time of year for service members around the world.

That’s why we are asking you to help fill the USO’s holiday card for our service members with at least 100,000 signatures to make sure our heroes don’t feel forgotten: Please, will you take just a few seconds out of your Friday to make sure they feel appreciated this holiday season?

Trimming the tree, baking cookies, opening presents on Christmas morning — all these moments won’t feel the same this year for many military families. It would mean so much if you could also send your best holiday wishes to service members who are spending the holidays deployed far from home.

Signing a card may not seem like much, but knowing Americans across the country are thinking of him during this special time of year means the world. With just a moment of your time, you have a chance to deliver holiday joy to so many heroes — but we don’t have much time left before Christmas.

So please, it only takes a moment and will be so meaningful to our heroes in uniform: Add your name to spread holiday warmth and cheer to troops around the world!

Thank you for standing with military families like ours — and happy holidays!

Kate and Vincent
