carl –
For our brave service men and women, keeping our country safe
isn’t their only worry. They’re stressed about being able to afford a house and
quality daycare for their children. They’re anxious about finding a job after
they leave active duty.
According to the 2015 Blue Star Families Military
Family Lifestyle Survey, many believe the American people don’t appreciate how
much they’ve given up to serve our country.
Until they hear from
you. When we asked you to send a message of support to a hero,
you answered the USO’s call to deliver a million messages in honor of our 75th
anniversary.
We know your message will bring a smile to the service
member who receives it. So why stop there?
Will you take a moment to
thank our men and women in uniform again by sending another
now?Show your gratitude and
support by sending another message to a brave service member now. Let our heroes
know you stand with them, today and every day.
carl,
the annual Blue Star Families Survey revealed a number of worrying trends among
our service members and their families: financial anxiety, especially when it
comes to housing, childcare and retirement; difficulty in transitioning from
military to civilian life; and nervousness about future job
prospects.
But that survey also shined a bright light on these heroes’
most remarkable qualities: Resilience and pride. Commitment to education and
community.
Yes, our brave men and women in uniform are pillars of
American strength – and at the USO, we know they draw that strength from
connecting to the things they love and fight for. So we’ve helped build
those connections – with our shows and celebrations, at our wellness and welcome
centers, through your gifts and messages – for 75 years.
Please, help us
mark this important anniversary and deliver 1 million messages of support by
sending another message of gratitude and encouragement now.
Add your message now to
show our brave men and women in uniform the American people do value their
service and appreciate their sacrifices. Thank you so
much,
Chris Miles
Senior Manager, Integrated Campaigns, USO
