Monster Energy Chooses Dick Kramer's Artwork for their USO 75th Anniversary Commemorative Can
For over 75 years, the United Service Organizations (USO) has been supporting American armed forces both home and abroad through a variety of programs. As the USO's mission statement reads: "The USO strengthens America’s military service members by keeping them connected to family, home, and country, throughout their service to the nation." With 160 USO centers worldwide, even in dangerous combat zones, the organization and its thousands of volunteers seek to bring a little bit of home to every service member.
Monster Energy, the manufacturer of Monster energy drinks, has been a long-time supporter of the USO, participating in entertainment and sports events with the vast resources and sponsorships at their disposal. In 2016, Monster Energy was awarded the Legacy of Hope award by the USO's Metropolitan Washington-Baltimore chapter for their longstanding dedication to American troops.
