5th Annual Holiday Spectacular to Partner with a Dozen Sheriff's Offices to Bring the Unity and Hope Needed in 2024 to Communities Across the US
Flint, MI — November 12, 2024
US United, a nonprofit organization that is building a movement to equip Americans with the power to reunite the country, is expanding its annual Holiday Spectacular from four participating counties to a dozen. On December 14th, in partnership with Sheriff Chris Swanson, the Genesee County Sheriff's Office in Flint, Michigan, and founding sponsor Kroger, US United is collaborating with sheriff's offices nationwide – from Birmingham to Pittsburgh, Houston to Washington DC – to bring joy and support to over 4,000 families in need this holiday season.
“The Holiday Spectacular is a testament to the strength forged when the community and law enforcement work together. We started in Flint back in 2020, and are grateful and excited to see the concept growing to new communities across the country every year. By providing essential resources, compassion, and acts of service to support families in need, we can all demonstrate the power of unity in action.”
“US United is building a movement for unity by empowering Americans with the tools to bridge the divides that have polarized us. And after this election season, bringing people moments of joy and human connection is an imperative. Whether it's delivering hundreds of 'Blessing Boxes' filled with household necessities donated by our collaborators at Kroger and others, or helping out with a missed car payment or paying for a critical roof repair, we are changing lives. And when dozens of community members and Sheriff's deputies deliver hugs and cheers at your front door, we're reminded that sometimes the greatest gift doesn't come in a box at all.”
US United is a movement for unity that equips Americans with the tools needed to reunite their country. A non-profit media collective, we make the idea of unity in America tangible by taking people out of their bubbles and connecting them across culture, communities and different experiences. Whether through our monthly virtual town hall-style 30 For US gatherings, our social media communities sharing stories of unity and creating a space for civil discourse, sports and music-centered live events, or community giving days like the Holiday Spectacular, US United is committed to bringing moments and opportunities for unity to all Americans.
