Story
Operation USO: Give Thanks is the USO of Missouri's annual Thanksgiving meal program that provides a basket full of all the food items and ingredients necessary for a complete Thanksgiving meal for service members and their families who may have economic hardship. Last year, the USO distributed 2,317 Thanksgiving baskets, and this year, we will provide over 2,700 Thanksgiving meals to military families across the state of Missouri and four counties in Illinois! We can't do this alone - this year's program will cost approximately $95,000, and due to Covid-19, food collection and donations are down. You can help support a military family this Thanksgiving with your donation of only $39 or start a fundraiser of your own, and share with your friends, family, and followers on social media to help us serve those who serve this Thanksgiving.
