USO Supporter, did you know today is the longest day of the year?

For sailors aboard the USS Dwight D. Eisenhower, whose deployment was just extended in the Mediterranean Sea due to the war in Gaza, the sun will set around 8 p.m. For soldiers stationed at Barton Barracks in Germany, it’ll set closer to 9:30 p.m. For airmen at Point Barrow Long Range Radar Site in Alaska, it won’t set at all.

But for every one of the hundreds of thousands of deployed service members across the globe, the longest day of the year is just one more in a seemingly endless stretch spent missing their loved ones. That’s why we’re asking you to support them with a donation today.

The USO is the only military support organization that’s with our active-duty service members and their families wherever they go — even in some of the world’s most remote and dangerous places. But what a lot of people don’t realize is that we’re not a part of the government; we’re a nonprofit organization that relies on the generosity of folks like you to help us go where our military does.

Your support helps us reach millions of service members and their families through hundreds of USO Centers and dozens of additional programs and services each year. Please, before the longest day of the year ends at midnight, will you donate $29 or more to help keep this vital work going?

Thank you for all you do to stand with those who serve today and every day.
