The USO is pleased to support the West Point military community during our annual Rucksacks to Backpacks distribution event. Registration is mandatory and limited to the first 120 children. A maximum of 4 children per family can be registered at a time. Children must be going into K through Eighth Grade to receive a backpack. Children do not need to be present for service members to pick up backpacks but would love for them to come! Open to children of Active Duty, National Guard and Reserve members. SPECIAL NOTE All registrations must be in the name of the parent or service member. Do not enter a child’s name on the registration form! If you cannot pickup your backpack during the event please let Janet Morse (jmorse@uso.org) know asap and we will hold the backpack(s). If we do not hear from you during the event, the backpack will be forfeited.
