USO Hawaii announced today the launch of an exciting new campaign that allows individuals and organizations in Hawaii to raise money in support of U.S. troops and their families during the seasonal barbecue timeframes of Memorial Day, 4th of July and Labor Day 2013.

Barbecue for the Troops is a fundraising campaign that encourages communities across the country to host barbecues and raise funds for USO programs and services that support deployed troops, military families, wounded, ill and injured troops and their caregivers and families of the fallen.

As many Americans celebrate the summer season and its peak barbecuing holidays with outdoor barbecue festivities, Barbecue for the Troops offers an easy-to-use platform for individuals to make a direct and meaningful impact on the lives of those who serve, while enjoying the summer barbecue tradition.
