USO Kansas Delivers Over 300 Holiday Stockings To Single Military Members

We certainly have the jolly laugh, the rosy cheeks, and the magic to spread joy, however, we are no Saint Nick! We’re USO Kansas!

At USO Kansas, staff members and our wonderful volunteers worked together to stuff over 300 holiday stockings for our service members who were unable to go home for the holidays. But, these stockings were no ordinary stockings! Some were specially hand made for military members and were filled with beef jerky, chips, candy, instant coffee or hot chocolate, an assortment of other snacks, books, puzzles, lip balm, gloves, hats, hand warmers, and other assortment of small entertainment items. The many wonderful items that were generously donated for our hard working and sacrificing military members were by the employees of RSM and several DAR chapters. This annual donation has been a huge contribution to the increase of morale and welfare of our service members during the holiday season. A service member returned to our USO center to express his gratitude by stating “Thank you for the stockings! I received mine during staff duty and it really helped my shift go by better than it would have. We really appreciated it.”
