In recognition of National Military Appreciation Month, Reyes Coca-Cola Bottling and Stater Bros. Charities are partnering for the third consecutive year in support of the Bob Hope USO. Reyes Coca-Cola Bottling will donate $15,000 to the USO, and Stater Bros. Charities will match their donation for a total contribution of $30,000.
The United States’ service members selflessly put their lives on the line to keep our country safe and free. Bob Hope USO’s mission is to strengthen America’s military service members by keeping them connected to family, home and country throughout their service to our nation. Supporting the USO is an opportunity to show gratitude and support to the brave men and women who continue to sacrifice their lives for our freedoms and to care for their families while they are away from home on deployment.
“Stater Bros. is very pleased to partner with Reyes Coca-Cola Bottling again in support of veterans, service members, and their families,” said Danielle Oehlman, Director of Stater Bros. Charities. “The benefits and services that the Bob Hope USO provides to our country’s military and their families is a mission that we are proud to support.”
Gary Cole, President of USO West Region, said, “We are deeply grateful to Stater Bros. Charities and Reyes Coca-Cola Bottling for being sustaining partners of the USO. The Give Back program embodies the essence of the USO mission by enabling the community at large to come together to support and give thanks to our armed forces and their brave military families in an impactful way.”
In addition, Stater Bros. Charities, Reyes Coca-Cola Bottling and the USO are encouraging customers to bolster the morale of service members and their families by sending them a digital support message that will be shared at USO locations around the world. They can visit https://www.uso.org/message/staterbros to share their message of support.
