USO Supporter,
Did you have a chance to read the email from our COO? Our supporters help fuel the programs that improve the daily lives of service members and their families, so I wanted to make sure you saw this message.
There’s no other way to put it: when our funding slows, programs and services like USO2GO kits, care packages, USO Center activities and more are at risk. And this is happening as our military is facing increased deployments in several regions.
We urgently need your support today to help us close this fundraising gap. Please take a moment to rush your gift in support of our military heroes now.
Sincerely,
Kristine Shumack
Chief Financial Officer, USO

Subject: Tensions are rising. Troops are responding.
USO Supporter,
Tensions are rising around the globe, and natural disasters continue to impact communities here at home. In every crisis, our brave military heroes are answering the call to serve. But while deployments have increased this year, our fundraising has slowed — and that’s why I’m reaching out today.
When you take a moment to give in support of our heroes, you help deliver care packages, connections to home and vital programs that strengthen their well-being when it matters most.
As a proud supporter of our military and the USO, I know you want every service member to feel seen, supported and appreciated. Whatever you’re able to give today will go a long way in making that possible.
Real heroes need you now more than ever. Let's show them the power of our gratitude. Will you use the link below to send your gift?
