I am fundraising for Holiday Boxes for the Troops as a member of TEAM USO.BBMohr4TheTroops! I have committed to raising $200.00 and need your help to reach my goal.
USO HOLIDAY BOXES
Aimed at bringing holiday cheer to troops stationed in Areas of Responsibility (AoR), the USO has developed the Holiday Box program.
The newest USO program bundles fun items that help servicemen and women celebrate holidays and occasions in remote locations that do not have access to traditional USO centers. Decorations to brighten encampments in the spirit of the specific season are just the start to a package that supplies 50 troops and truly gives soldiers a sense of home. Each box also has edible treats, banners, greeting cards and a connection home like a video camera and DVDs to send messages home.
From scary movies for Halloween to tasty treats for the winter holidays, these deliveries work off of recommendations from troops in the field. There are four separate boxes: Valentine’s Day/Football; Memorial Day/Summer/Fourth of July; Halloween/Thanksgiving and Winter (with Christmas and Hanukah add-ons).

THANK YOU MESSAGES FROM THE TROOPS:
- "The items in the box went over really well with the troops here. It really boosted the spirits of the guys, especially after the Holidays. I would like to thank you for all the hard work and dedication to helping make life for us over here a little better. We are located in a FOB that does not have a lot of amenities so these packages mean a lot to us.” - SSG Eric J Price
- "I just want to say bravo, you guys did it with the package. I got them tonight and they are all gone. I loved it and the soldiers loved it even more. My cooks are going to put the decorations up for the Super Bowl.” - SFC Pruitt
- lifts the spirits of America's troops and their families
- provide a touch of home through centers at airports and military bases around the world
- top quality entertainment
