The Armed Forces Family Foundation and United Services Organziation cut the ribbon Thursday on a new USO center on Fort Stewart, the first in Georgia on a military installation.
The USO Center Fort Stewart/Hunter Army Airfield includes a theater, a kitchen, computers, gaming centers, family programs and more.
Located on Gulick Avenue, the USO center is open to soldiers and family members at no cost.
The AFFF donated more than $8,453 to outfit the theater section of the center, and the center includes a kids room, USO transition services and a snack bar as well.
The center is expected to benefit approximately 30,000 troops “and their families by enhancing overall morale and wellness of the surrounding military community,” a press release said.
