- Visit the First Lady and Dr. Jill Biden’s Joining Forces web site to send a message of thanks to a military family, find volunteer opportunities and more.
- Sponsor a USO care package or volunteer.
- Follow the advice from the U.S. Postal Service to make sure your letters and packages arrive to our troops intact.
- Show the military members in your life where they can learn more about all their benefits.
