Service Opportunity
Let's Get Ready for the USO - April 10!

We invite all members, especially those who are new or have not yet volunteered for a Day of USO service, to consider joining us for this special opportunity to give back to our military personnel. I assure you that at the end of the day, you will feel fulfilled and appreciated by those you serve, who will respond with, "Yes Sir" or "Yes Ma'am" in heartfelt gratitude.

 

Event Details:  

Date: Thursday, April 10, 2025  

Location: USO, Hartsfield Airport  

Shift: 9 AM to 3 PM

 

We plan to serve an "All American" lunch featuring hot dogs with all the fixings, chips, fresh fruit, snack bars, and homemade cookies. To add an extra treat, E. 48th Street Market will kindly donate 75 servings of baked ziti and meatballs. You can help as a volunteer at the USO, or by baking cookies we'll take with us to share with our military friends.


Volunteer at the USO: We are seeking 8 volunteers to assist during the shift. Parking instructions will be provided later, but we recommend taking MARTA due to ongoing construction at the airport.

 

Cookie Donations: We are also asking for homemade cookies! Our goal is to collect 600 cookies, with each of the 8 bakers making 75 cookies of their favorite recipe. Cookies can be frozen and then delivered in bulk to E. 48th Street Market on Tuesday, April 7, or Wednesday, April 9. On the day of service, we will repack cookies for individual distribution.


We look forward to a rewarding day of "Service Above Self" on April 10, 2025.

 

If you are interested in volunteering or if you would like to contribute as a cookie baker, please contact Charlie Augello at italian@e48stmarket.com.

Thank you for considering this opportunity to serve our brave military personnel!
