Pensacola International Airport Exodus 2019
Another successful Exodus at our USO Northwest Florida Pensacola International Airport! Between December 20th-24th, our volunteers staffed our center 24 hours to provide for 1,600+ service members traveling home for the Holidays. We were sure to give them VIP treatment! We had professional massages from FSMTA, plenty of doggy therapy, delicious meals from the community, areas to rest, play games, and more.Thank you, USO volunteers for your late hours and hard work. Thank you Pensacola community for your thousands of dollars worth in donations. Thank you Pensacola International Airport for lending us some extra space to accommodate these service members. Without everyone coming together, none of this would be possible.
