Greetings!
CARS & CIGARS
The USO of Missouri is excited to host Cars & Cigars on Saturday May 14, 2016 at Saint Louis Union Station Midway in Downtown St. Louis.

Cars & Cigars is a full-throttle benefit event for The USO of Missouri. This event combines sports cars with a party atmosphere perfect for the refined connoisseur. Guests will enjoy a curated selection of exotic European automobiles, bourbon tastings, cigars, food, entertainment and beer selection.

If the names Ferrari, Lamborghini, Maserati, Porsche and Cobra excite you... this event is a do-not-miss!

Best of all, proceeds from this event help the USO of Missouri keep military service members connected to family, home and country, throughout their service to the nation. Please help our troops by supporting this fantastic event!

USO OF MISSOURI - SPEAKERS BUREAU
It's amazing to think how many military members' lives we've been able to touch and care for as family while they travel the world. When we first opened our doors at Lambert-International Airport in 1981, we only provided snacks for just a few hours a day. Now, we are a multi-services organization operating three facilities, and two Mobile USO units, taking every chance we get to express our appreciation and gratitude for those Americans who put their lives on the line for us every day.
 
Each year, the USO of Missouri locally provides a variety of services and programs to more than 275,000 military personnel and their families which include such programs as care packages for deployments of military going overseas, events for military families to enjoy like Santa's Express and A Day at the Zoo, reading programs for children of deployed parents and much more.  We'd like to share our mission with you by having a speaker at one of your organizational meetings.
 
The USO of Missouri is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization.  We are not funded by the government, military, or the United Way and are not part of the Department of Defense..  We are financially independent from the National USO.
 
Thank you for considering the USO of Missouri to be a speaker at your organization's meeting.  Should you have any further questions or would like to schedule a speaker, please contact Chris at [email protected].
