Every day feels long when you’re deployed.
Early morning wake-up calls, food rations instead of home-cooked meals, missed holidays and kids’ birthdays — these are just a few of the daily challenges our active-duty heroes face. And today, on the longest day of the year, all these challenges are that much more difficult to endure.
That’s why the USO is committed to doing whatever we can to make each day a little brighter for service members and their families. But as a nonprofit organization, we rely on caring supporters like you to help provide critical programs and services for America’s military community.
So please, before the longest day of the year ends at midnight, will you donate $29 or more to stand with our heroes?
SUPPORT OUR HEROES NOW
Thanks so much for being a part of this community of proud military supporters.

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?
SUPPORT OUR HEROES NOW
Thank you for all you do to stand with those who serve today and every day.
