USO Center Hosted Meals
USO Dinners accompany a core USO program that is held monthly at the USO Great Lakes Center located on historic Naval Station Great Lakes and are free to military and their families in a friendly, ‘home away from home’ environment. Not only is this an opportunity to show our support for the military community, but it allows for stronger bonds, friendships, and memories to be built in this community. These programs are sponsored by military friendly organizations, companies, and clubs and often times send volunteers to help out at the event and express their gratitude.
USO Dinners at USO Great Lakes are open to all currently serving military (active duty, guard, or reserve), military spouses and dependent youth of all branches of service.
To find a current schedule of USO Dinners, visit the EVENTS tab on this website.
HOW TO SUPPORT: If your corporation would like to support a Dinner, please email usogreatlakes@uso.org
