Dear USO Supporter,

Every service member deserves to feel connected to home during the holidays.

That's the mission our military supporters make possible, helping the USO provide holiday care packages. I've been fortunate to see firsthand: You can give our heroes in uniform special moments of holiday joy, even while they serve thousands of miles from everyone they know and love.

Holiday care packages are shipped worldwide, wherever our service members are stationed. The special packages include seasonal snacks, warm clothing, playing cards and even postcards so they can send a little holiday cheer back home. Right now, your gift will DOUBLE for our troops, up to $100,000, thanks to a matching gift from FedEx.

Your gift today is a small way to show your thanks for our troops, who do so much to protect our country.

Preparing these care packages is no small task. It takes hundreds of dedicated volunteers and a global network to make sure each box is ready to be delivered across continents.

All of that work is worth it: Service members tell us that opening a holiday care package feels like opening a piece of home. It's a reminder that they are never forgotten, even in the most challenging environments.

This Christmas, you can give a gift that brightens the spirits of those who sacrifice so much.

Please don't wait. Rush your generous donation to help provide holiday care packages and other critical supplies to our troops so they can feel closer to home this Christmas.

Thank you for standing with our military community and making sure no hero is forgotten this holiday season.

For the People Who Serve,

Kristen Baxter
Vice President, USO
