📚❤️ USO READING PROGRAM ABOARD USS JOHN CANLEY ❤️📚

Deployment can make it difficult to stay connected with your family—but a story can help bridge the distance. 💙

The USO is coming aboard USS John Canley to give Sailors an opportunity to create a special video recording of themselves reading a book to their children.

📅 Wednesday, September 2
⏰ 0900–1300
⚓ Aboard USS John Canley

Here’s how it works:
📖 Choose a book and record yourself reading to your kids
🎥 Your family will receive a link to the video recording
📚 Your family will also receive a FREE copy of the book to follow along at home

If you are aboard USS John Canley and would like to participate, please contact your ship CMC for more information and to sign up.

We are thrilled to support you and help you stay connected with the people who matter most. ❤️

Our coast-to-coast expansion is up and running!

The PCS Pantry Restock Box Program, in collaboration with CVS Health, is now available to families moving to Joint Base Lewis-McChord (JBLM) and installations throughout the San Diego area!

We know moving can be challenging, and the costs add up quickly. In our most recent Military Family 360, 79.1% of families reported experiencing a financial impact from their most recent move. Among the top expenses was re-purchasing consumable household supplies that couldn’t be shipped.

We want to help take one more task off your moving checklist. Each box includes about $150 in pantry staples and household essentials delivered right to your door.

Families moving to the locations listed below, or who arrived within the past 90 days, can now sign up for their free box.

Visit mfan.org/pcspantry to see if your installation is participating and register today!
