Hurricane Helene has completely devastated the southeastern United States. More than 120 people have been killed, hundreds are missing and millions more are dealing with the horrific effects of this storm.

Nearly 6,000 National Guard members have deployed to help communities in need, with the USO right beside them every step of the way. But we’re counting on this community to help us support them as they rescue flood victims, clear debris from roads and provide vital supplies to communities devastated by the storm.

And for a short time, a generous group of donors is MATCHING* all gifts, dollar for dollar, up to a total of $20,000, to help us support all of our heroes at this critical moment and into the future.** Will you rush $29 or more to have the value of your gift doubled for service members when they need us most?

The USO proudly goes wherever our service members go — even when they’re deployed at a moment’s notice. Right now, our Mobile USO teams are with responding National Guard members, delivering much-needed refreshments, hygiene kits, and a comfortable space to rest. Mobile USO units ensure that these brave service members remain mission ready as they work tirelessly to support the local communities impacted by Hurricane Helene’s destructive path.

But our programs and services are only possible thanks to the generosity of caring friends like you. So please, don’t wait: Will you rush $29 or more to have every dollar MATCHED to support our heroes as they respond to emergencies like this one?

We will continue to keep you updated as this rapidly changing situation develops. Thank you for being there for our service members at this critical moment.
