OPERATION REACH OUT
GBU is preparing to pack both quarterly care packages and holiday stockings for our deployed military service members and veterans in need. Here's how you can help!
Volunteer
Join us at Operation Troop Appreciation (OTA) in West Mifflin, PA, on Saturday, October 22, for our quarterly packing event or Saturday, December 3, for OTA's Deck The Halls event.

Sponsor a care package or stocking for just $15 or donate any amount to help with the project! You can donate online at gbucares.org/donate.
Host
Team up with fellow GBU members in your area to host your own packing event. Email memberbenefits@gbu.org for a toolkit on how to pack care packages and stockings, what to put in them, how to ship them and how to request funding for your project!
