USO Stateside Care Packages
The USO Stateside Care Package program was created to increase delivery of programming to service members living downstate in more rural areas. Now in it’s third year, the USO Stateside Care Package program has delivered 30 total kits statewide and replenished 17 of these kits with new items. The kits, delivered in footlockers, include craft and sports items, cornhole “bags” set, coloring books, kick balls, play parachute, ladder game, toys and more.
To request a USO Stateside Care Package be delivered to your unit please contact our USO Programs team at (312) 822-6699.
