We are collecting donations for the USO of Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Both financial or physical.

For 80 years, the United Service Organizations (USO) of Pennsylvania and New Jersey, Inc. has served the needs of the active duty, National Guard and Reserve military personnel and their families throughout Pennsylvania and Southern New Jersey. The USO is not a government agency. Our mission is to enhance the quality of life of the U.S. Armed Forces personnel and their families. In short, the USO is the bridge between the civilian population and our military. In times of war and peace, the USO has delivered its special brand of support, comfort, morale and recreational services to service members and their families. Our service area covers the entire Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and New Jersey from Trenton to the Shore. Wherever and whenever they go, the USO will always be by their side.
