About

Since 1941, the USO has been the nation’s leading nonprofit organization to serve the men and women in the U.S. military, and their families, throughout their time in uniform. The power of the USO lies in our consistent and regular contact with service members across their entire careers. Our unparalleled access to the U.S. military community through our worldwide footprint—at more than 250 USO locations globally and via our innovative expeditionary programming, USO Mobile vehicle fleet, and Military Virtual Programming—and our close coordination with U.S. military leadership means we can deliver resources wherever and whenever they are needed most. From the moment they join, through their assignments and deployments, and as they transition back to their communities, the USO’s global scope and full “life of service” access lend unmatched reach to support service members and military spouses wherever they go.
