Short review
More than 2 million Americans serve on active duty or in the reserves today, including some of our own Associates. Honoring Our Heroes is our way of saying thank you to our active duty service members and our nation's 23 million veterans. Working together, The Kroger Co. Family of Stores and the USO stand behind our nation’s military community. Our stores have raised more than $23 million since 2010 to help support USO programs - the largest cumulative gift to the USO in its nearly 75 year history.
