Operation That's My Ride



USO youth programming is committed to strengthening America’s military service members by keeping them connected to their children throughout their service. Over 44% of our service members have children and USO Operation That’s My Ride provides a targeted opportunity to connect through the classic gift of a bicycle. At USO sponsored military appreciation events and throughout the holidays, children of military families (ages 2-8) are presented with a brand new bike, helmet, and instruction manuals for safe cycling. This program engages the entire military family from picking out a bike to learning how to ride, parents can encourage children while at home or away, further boosting morale and strengthening their family relationship.
