USO and Joining Forces partner so that you can give troops "Thanks From Everywhere"

Joining Forces, First Lady Michelle Obama and Dr. Jill Biden's national initiative to support service members and their families, and United Service Organizations (USO), an organization dedicated to supporting America's troops have launched a new initiative this holiday season called "Thanks From Everywhere". Simply by going to the initiatives website you can write a "thank you" note to the troops You can also read the messages of others all over the country by zip code using the interactive map.

The initiative provides a simple way for the computer savvy to thank service men and women. The idea that other messages can be viewed is great because you get to see how an individual can contribute to a collective effort. This partnership is a given and to have it manifest through this kind of innovative initiative that marries technology with a common concept makes it easy for almost everyone to participate. There's no simpler way to give thanks than to write a "thank you" note.
