The United Service Organizations (USO) at Fort Liberty and Lowe's hosted a grand re-opening ceremony this morning, marking the official opening of the newly renovated USO center on Fort Liberty.

The recent renovation of the USO center on Fort Liberty was one of 100 community projects in 2023 that made up Lowe’s Hometowns. Launched in 2022, Lowe’s Hometowns is the company’s largest-ever impact program, with a five-year, $100 million commitment from Lowe’s to rebuild and revitalize community spaces nationwide.

Thanks to Lowe’s Hometowns, the USO center on Fort Liberty that provides services and support to nearly 7,000 service members and their families each month, now has a refreshed and welcoming reception area, new carpet and flooring, updated kitchen appliances, new countertops, and a brand-new buffet area for military families and single soldiers to enjoy together all year round.

“We are grateful [for] the tremendous support of Lowe’s over the years, and this renovation project truly highlights Lowe’s commitment to our military community and the USO’s long standing support of the people who serve,” said Kelli Willoughby, Executive Director, USO North Carolina, in a press release. “These renovations will enhance the feeling of home already felt by the thousands of service members and their families who visit our USO center on Fort Liberty each month.”
