About this Location

The USO at Palm Springs provides a convenient sanctuary for service members traveling to and from a nearby military base to destinations nationally and around the world. Active-duty Marines serving at the Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center (MCAGCC) near Twentynine Palms, located about 60 miles northeast of Palms Springs, are the primary customers. Our local Palm Springs volunteers work every day to provide a taste of home in-center and through outreach base support to assist our troops as they serve our nation.

The mission of the USO is to strengthen the well-being of the people serving in America’s military and their families. As a congressionally chartered, private organization, the USO relies on the generosity of individuals, organizations, and corporations to support its activities, and is powered by a family of volunteers to accomplish our mission.

The one thing I’ve learned volunteering at Bob Hope USO is never to make assumptions based on the lack of smile, you never know what they’ve been through, whether they’re coming in from a war zone, separated from their families for a long time … the first thing I do is ask how I can help.
